Vipassana meditation is really a science of mind and matter which sharpens and refines your mind. This technique was taught by S.N. Goenka. I have been practicing for about 5 years and it has been very productive and useful for me. I highly recommend a ten day retreat. Go to <a href="http://www.Dhamma.org">www.Dhamma.org</a>

<div><div class="_1mf _1mj"><span>A week ago, I attended my very first Family Constellations therapy group session at the Tree of Life Center with Dr Michaelene Ruhl PsyD. After months of convincing my mother to attend with me, it finally happened and I was so grateful she agreed to go.</span></div>
</div>
<div><div class="_1mf _1mj"><span>Like many in my soul group who have never attended group therapy or worked on themselves - any type of group counseling or therapy can be very intimidating - yet it doesn't have to be. The beauty of this form of therapy is that the facilitator and the participants were very welcoming, creating a safe space that was comfortable for both me and for my mother who is new to therapy and any type of self-reflection work.</span></div>
</div>
<div><div class="_1mf _1mj"><span>I have personally found Family Constellations to be most effective when family members are present and/or multiple people are participating on behalf of family members. This particular group last week included a small group of people ranging from novice participants to an expert participant from Germany who was skilled enough to teach Family Constellations.</span></div>
</div>
<div><div class="_1mf _1mj"><span>Family Constellations is a forward-thinking ‘avant garde’ form of therapy that is relatively new to the traditional psychology community here in the states - yet its popularity in parts of Europe, (Germany, France and Great Britain) as well as in Northern California where it was first invented and rolled out by Bert Hellinger has made its way over to the states in recent years. Hellinger, the master teacher of Family Constellations, is a former minister from Germany who first invented it. The constellation approach is endorsed by Harvard Medical doctors, degreed psychologists and many other well-respected people in the field of medicine and psychology. Its effectiveness and ability to help families heal stems from pure awareness and empathy that come through the “energy field” - not talk- based solutions - making it a more palatable and compassionate way of resolving conflict without the continued exhaustion that comes from talking it out that takes place in traditional group therapy or conflict resolution counseling sessions. With its effectiveness and the “thumbs up” from both my mother and myself - I can only see this healing modality growing. I hope too, that as we continue to “peel back the layers” of my family’s soul group and lineage that both my birth family gets healed and my extended family members (4 different sets of families in conflict who don’t talk anymore). Yes - many who are estranged need this type of healing to manage rifts in their family and that includes almost everyone I know! Therefore, it is my hope by sharing this experience that others reading this bravely heal their wounds within their families too - for themselves and for their children’s future generations. In the wake of this weekend’s shootings in Orlando - this is so needed in our world! Not only within the family, but within the workplace too.</span></div>
</div>
<div><div class="_1mf _1mj"><span>Family Constellations Is lead usually by an educated facilitator like Dr Michelene Ruhl who has studied with Jamy and Peter Faust - leaders on the east coast in Family Constellations.</span></div>
</div>
<div><div class="_1mf _1mj"><span>HOW ITS STRUCTURED... During a group therapy session, participants in the therapy may be asked to “fill in” for a particular family - taking on the role of a person's family member. They have the option at this point to accept the assigned role or to decline. If taken, the person taking on the family member’s role will feel energetically the emotion of the person they are asked to be. Others participating may take on other family member roles, participate as a group observer only, and/or may star as the main subject (client) of the family constellation. Whatever role you take on, the energy is felt by everyone in the group and new understanding comes through by all the participants of the constellation.</span></div>
</div>
<div><div class="_1mf _1mj"><span>What is great about this form of therapy.. is that it is not a "talk based" therapy or a solution based therapy - no words are necessary as it is a type of therapy that brings greater awareness /understanding and empathy to ALL INVOLVED in the soul group through pure feeling/sense of awareness that comes into the energy field.</span></div>
</div>
<div><div class="_1mf _1mj"><span>When I experienced my first family constellation as the main client last week, I was still marinating on what happened (as the facilitator Dr Michaelene asked that we not talk about our personal constellations for 72 hours), yet a week later, I am able to fully digest some of the intense work that took place.</span></div>
</div>
<div><div class="_1mf _1mj"><span>Our group conducted two family constellations that night and it took approximately 3 hours! Yet much was accomplished.</span></div>
</div>
<div><div class="_1mf _1mj"><span>During my constellation, I was selected as the main client. Normally outgoing - I became shy and somewhat self-conscious like a deer in the headlights - not knowing what to expect, given that it was my first time having one done on my family. As I joke with friends and clients, I am so used to being the role of healer, and so happy when clients tell me they are happy and healed.. yet this is a form of healing that I needed personally - to delve in deeper to heal not only me, but my family and to blog about it so that I can help other families who need healing get better too. So here it goes..</span></div>
</div>
<div><div class="_1mf _1mj"><span>My particular constellation involved a mother's lineage constellation as our mothers are the ones who give birth to us and as Bert Hellinger reminds us - mothers are our portals to the world. They are the ones who carry us within their body and that we rely on. Whether we are close to our mothers or not, they are the one person who give us life. With constellations therapy too, often mothers lineage constellations - there is a repeat pattern where a mother is overly attentive or not giving enough -oftentimes the mother is neglectful, overwhelmed,controlling and/or depressed. Themes that often occur. In other instances, clients may feel resentment over a step-parent’s treatment and/or a parent's favoritism of one sibling over another. These are all repeat patterns/scenarios seen in this and other forms of energy healing and in my own practice. Healing this is important to our well-being and to find a way to see our mothers in a new light by seeing our mother’s lineage and our mother’s relationship with her own mother and to our own grandmothers and great-grandmothers too. To understand a mother’s feelings/ relationship to her own mother and what she was or was not capable of providing to us - allows us to realize emotions felt by these relationships and other sacrifices made - ie. my grandma working full-time in the 50s to support both her children and her family/soul group, and my mom feeling neglected and giving up on her own career to have a sense of family she felt she never had..and feeling what that entailed and empathy for not having the emotions/love in her own experiences to give back.. All these emotions came through that helped to develop empathy. Some at that moment.. yet more as the days passed.. (much like traditional energy healing)... While I felt a sense of comradery. and understanding with my grandma Rose who was also a career woman with much responsibilities - the closer I moved towards admiring and being more like my grandma Rose with the person who stepped in for her, the more my mom’s energy /connection to the constellation was severed from both of us. The man from Germany who stood in for the role of my mother explained - there was no connection there ( and my mom just confirmed that the feelings described were valid - as that was how my mom felt watching this constellation. She later validated this to the group during the debriefing process.</span></div>
</div>
<div><div class="_1mf _1mj"><span>Please note: the ENERGY field is genderless - and regardless of a role you perform - it doesnt matter if the person asked to participate is of the same gender or not. Therefore, it was not a conscious choice to choose someone female to represent my mother - it was important to choose someone who could handle the role and the energy.</span></div>
</div>
<div><div class="_1mf _1mj"><span>How can a “stand in” participant feel the energy of my mom observing this constellation? Anyone who has studied energy healing or sacred geometry may remember the Vesica Pisces - which is the sacred overlap - or intersection between two individual people’s energy fields. It is this field that allows for the transformation of consciousness to occur in the form of images and thoughts/and feelings of the person - whether they are dead or alive. With mothers lineage constellation both my mother who is very much alive and my late grandmother Rose's energy could be felt by everyone in the room- including those who participated on their behalf. When the lady who participated as my grandma Rose kept saying her stomach hurt her.. my mother and I immediately looked at each other - as my grandmother died of a very painful and slow stomach cancer. Though my constellation didn’t bring immediate answers or insight that night - it did validate why my mother was " checked out" and not into me having a career - and gave me more understanding on why my mother who felt rejected/neglected from her own mother, didn't know how to give more or show love -especially to someone in the working world.</span></div>
</div>
<div><div class="_1mf _1mj"><span>The beauty of constellations is that again - there is no solution - only awareness and empathy that comes into the consciousness of those participating and into their extended families who feel the energy and increased awareness of the work done. For example, the next day, my father was so sweet and understanding and was singing. yet a few days later by Thursday of last week, he seemed agitated and irritated that something shifted causing my mom and I to get along with each other.. Yes, like traditional energy healing.. things shift when you do this work.. and it takes some adjustments! Like peeling an onion... this is only the start, as there is more work to be done!</span></div>
</div>
<div><div class="_1mf _1mj"><span>The second family constellations involved a warm friendly lady with grown children who wanted to heal and forgive her deceased mother for years of emotional abuse growing up. This lady had two brothers and resented her mother for demeaning her and favoring her brothers over her. My mother was asked to play her deceased mother and the irony was that her mother was named Irene -the same name as the woman who raised me until I was ten years old. She was the most beautiful spirit in the world who raised me as a little girl until she passed away. Irene means “Peace” and Irene or “Reneey” as I called her, was a beautiful mix of African and Caucasian and was the sweetest most encouraging soul I had in my early years besides my grandparents and grandma Lucy who raised my mom and aunt. She was my biggest cheering section too when I performed songs for her as she provided the unconditional love and attention my parents were not capable of giving. Though she died when I was ten, - the irony of the name sparked tears to my eyes. I was touched deeply by this constellation and the way my mom became this lady's mother - stepping into the energy and becoming the deceased mother “Irene” to help this lady heal. Having gone through emotional abuse and neglect at the hands of a depressed mother too, who resented my close relationship with my father too - there were many parallels that striked a chord in my heart - something I could relate to. This second constellation was over the top miraculous because it allowed me to feel empathy ( via this Irene) for this lady, having endured up until this point in my life similar feelings of abuse/hurt. It also allowed me to experience the " human part" of my mom Carolyn - that by serving as the role of Irene, she showed she had and was capable of developing empathy and heart - something i so desperately needed to see in my mother, not feeling, seeing or connecting to it growing up. My mom in this moment became a " rock star" healer to me - as I saw and felt the " heartfelt compassion she showed this woman as her mother. Though it wasn't me - it made her treatment of me more palatable - seeing that she could show empathy to someone that suffered similar abuse and neglect. In this moment, I no longer saw my mom as the fire-breathing hollow dragon that couldn't feel heart or show empathy. This permanently changed my view and feelings towards my mother for the better. The observers too, felt the intense energy in the space of the work done between this woman survivor of emotional abuse and my mom's participation connecting to the energy of her deceased mother Irene. In my own mother's words afterwards: " I felt like I wanted to tell her I was sorry and hug her and tell her how unhappy I was and that it wasn't her fault" not my mom's words yet the energy she was connecting to consciously as Irene to help this lady heal and have closure during her constellation. In this moment I was so very proud of my mom for holding this intense space and for the work she did to help heal this lady and give her the closure she needed. My mom truly is a gifted healer in her own right.</span></div>
</div>
<div><div class="_1mf _1mj"><span>While it is one week since we did the work - like my own style of energy healing one-on-one with clients, I noticed a shift in my family. My dad seems nicer at times, my brother is not bullying me this week and my dream time with my sister Lis was more loving/ understanding. My anger though was there for my sister Pam who sailed in the kitchen the next day declaring that she was “happy we were having this group talk therapy and that all her friends in Toronto are doing it..” . Again - her comments irritated me - especially coming from someone who has never sought out professional therapy of any kind in her life - who has no education in it, who discredits/downplays what I know and who I am, yet who thinks she knows what is right for everyone’s marriage /relationship - instead of looking in her own backyard and her own issues. Yes - these are the types of people who really need therapy the most.. Though I am not quite ready to have my sister Pam join us in a group family constellations therapy - even though there are layers of hurtful things she has done.. the beauty of this exchange is that my mom who would normally gang up on me to defend Pam stayed completely out of it when I told her to get educated on this topic before she had a conversation with me. - since she is an unwilling listener finishing my sentences for me. I was so happy that my mom didn't correct me and let me say my peace! So although I am not ready to deal with my sister quite yet.. if she ever did go for this therapy on her own- and heal patterns of meddling (like my dad) I’m sure I wouldn't be as irritated with her comments - as the empathy and awareness surface within the family without needing to say a word.</span></div>
</div>
<div><div class="_1mf _1mj"><span>The other shift that occurred with my father - is that he was not particularly happy by Friday that my mom and I were getting along. For starters, he is used to the friction/conflict his entire life.. He also likes to “stir the pot” often for attention and to keep the focus on him... so this too may be examined/healed if needed in the future.</span></div>
</div>
<div><div class="_1mf _1mj"><span>Though my mom and Pam still “excluded me” going to visit relatives of my late grandpa George (Poppies) and his twin brother Lewis - for a fashion party on Sunday - the beauty of this therapy is that i just didn't care!. whereas before I would have felt very hurt and excluded. I guess from years of being excluded and from this therapy I just don't care anymore.</span></div>
</div>
<div><div class="_1mf _1mj"><span>Energy shifts in family relations/dynamics is quite normal .. and I've blogged about it before explaining examples of changes that occur within family relationships when you do energy work.</span></div>
</div>
<div><div class="_1mf _1mj"><span>My mom and I both like Family Constellations therapy and found it effective so far, so we will continue to go monthly. The only drawback is that you need a group of participants and a really good facilitator like Dr Ruhl to conduct it. Each constellation is peeling back a layer or understanding to fully heal and better understand aspects of you and your family. What is most promising about the Family constellations approach is that where traditional therapy has failed many families and marriages - this approach has saved so many who were brave enough to connect to it. If only it was readily available to more families and relationships that needed healing - including the workplace where many family dynamics/scenarios repeat with your coworkers until we learn the individual lessons we need know. If we all knew as individuals what these lessons were - we wouldn't be here and we wouldn't incarnate - as like Bert Hellinger calls it - it's the" veil of forgetting" the covered up sub-conscious is lifted during this work so that we remember again our soul contracts with one another... Remembering elements of what we agreed to work on this time around and with who after picking our soul group including our parents, siblings, friends, spouses and other players we agreed to incarnate with this time around brings a sense of clarity to where there was fog. When family constellations group work is done - the veil of forgetting is lifted and we have an " aha" moment - remembering who we are... why we are here...and what we need to learn.. As well as the context/relations to those within our family/soul group.</span></div>
</div>
<div><div class="_1mf _1mj"><span>As Hellinger, Metzer and Jamy and Peter Faust set out to help as pioneers in this approach it's important for everyone in the wake of the Orlando tragedies to develop more love/empathy in our world. The Family Constellations Approach can be the breakthrough remedy to do just that as healing is so needed in our world at this time. People need hope, faith, encouragement/support and love - and this healing modality can help - especially with what happened!</span></div>
</div>
<div><div class="_1mf _1mj"><span>While this was my first group therapy trying it- both my mother and I recommend it and look forward to continuing our work " peeling back the layers" of areas within ourselves and our core family unit that need healing.</span></div>
</div>
<div><div class="_1mf _1mj"><span>I also personally look forward to sharing more insight on this wonderful healing next month and with clients.</span></div>
</div>
<div><div class="_1mf _1mj"><span>Have a wonderful summer and thoughts/prayers to all the families who need personal healing at this time - including those who lost loved ones this weekend in Orlando.</span></div>

In 1983 Bauval developed a theory that correlates the three pyramids of Giza in Egypt with the three stars of Orion’s Belt and, with the support of Egyptologist Sir I.E.S. Edwards, published a paper in the Oxford Journal in 1989. Bauval’s theory is now internationally known as ‘The Orion Correlation Theory’ (OCT). In 1994 Bauval published his first book, The Orion Mystery (with Adrian Gilbert), which was a No.1 bestseller in the UK, and also an international bestseller translated in more than twenty-five languages. He co-authored and authored several other bestsellers:<br/>
Keeper of Genesis (1996), Secret Chamber (1999), Talisman (2004), The Egypt Code (2006), Black Genesis (2011), Breaking the Mirror of Heaven (2012), The Master Game (2012), Imhotep the African (2013), The Vatican Heresy ( 2014); Secret Chamber Revisited (2014) The Soul of Egypt (Oct 2015), Sphinx: In search for the Origins of Civilization (Winter 2016). He is currently working on a book with astrobiologist professor Chandra Wickramasinghe. Bauval has appeared on many National and International television channels including BBC, ABC, NBC, Fox-TV, CNN, RAI, HISTORY CHANNEL, NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC, DISCOVERY CHANNEL, FRANCE A3, and CHANNEL FOUR UK. Bauval lives with his wife Michele in Southern Spain, near Malaga. They have two children, Candice and Jonathan, who live in England.<br/>

What is the origin of the Christmas tree, with the star on top, decorations about, and all the brightly wrapped presents beneath?

<p>Have you ever wondered why in modern Christmas tradition we do the things we do? What is the origin of the Christmas tree, with the star on top, decorations about, and all the brightly wrapped presents beneath? Or the idea behind Santa Claus who jets around the globe in a magic sleigh with flying reindeer – defying both time and space – to deliver the world’s children a bounty of Christmas gifts? And since when did Santa and the birth of Jesus have anything to do with each other? Where do these stories come from – and better yet: what are we actually celebrating on Christmas morning?<br/> <br/> There are answers to these questions. And the history is not so farfetched or even that hidden. You just have to know where to look. And the first place we look is the North Pole; seriously – in ancient Siberia, near the top of the world. The story of Santa and his likely origins begins where he supposedly lives: the frigid North.<br/> <br/> In this wintry-wonderland, if you go searching for Santa, you may not find him or his Elvin factory – but you will find groups of indigenous people native to what we know as Siberia. Among these cultures are the northern Tungusic people, known as the Evenki. The Evenki were predominantly hunter-gatherers as well as <i>reindeer herders</i>. Their survival depended largely upon the health and vitality of their domesticated reindeer. The reindeer provided the Evenki and other northern tribes with everything from clothing, housing material, wares and tools from the bones and antlers, transportation (yes, they ride reindeer!), milk, as well as cultural and religious inspiration.</p>

<p>The Evenki were also a <i>shamanic</i> culture. The word “shaman” actually<b><a href="http://www.shamanicevolution.org/1/post/2012/08/the-evolution-of-the-shaman.html" title=""> has its roots</a></b> in the Tungus word <i>saman</i> which means “one who knows or knows the spirits.” Many of the classic shamanic characteristics that would later be reflected in cultures all over the world were originally documented by Russian and European explorers while observing the Tungus and related people’s religious life. This includes the three-world system, the shamanic journey or soul flight, the use of altered states of consciousness, animistic belief in spirit, and so forth.<br/> <br/> A significant aspect of the shamanism practiced in this part of the world during that time was linked to <i>Amanita muscaria</i>, also known as the Fly Agaric mushroom. This mushroom is more widely accepted in the modern world as the Alice in Wonderland mushroom. It was held very sacred by these ancient people, and was used by the shaman and others for ceremonial and spiritual purposes. Amanitas – as you can tell by the pictures – range from brightly red and white to golden orange and yellow. They <i>only</i> grow beneath certain types of <i>evergreen trees</i>. They form a symbiotic relationship with the roots of the tree, the exchange of which allows them to grow. One of the reported ancient beliefs was that the mushroom was actually the fruit of the tree. Due to the lack of seed, it is also commonly held that Fly Agaric was divine – a kind of <i>virginally birthed</i> sacred plant.<br/> <br/> Although intensely psychoactive, Amanitas are also toxic. One way to reduce the toxicity and increase the psychoactive potency was to simply dry them. When out collecting the mushrooms, people would pick a bunch of them under the evergreen trees and lay them out along the branches while continuing to pick the mushrooms beneath other trees. The result was something that looked very reminiscent of a modern Christmas tree: evergreen trees whose <i>branches are dotted with bright red, roundish “decorations”</i> – in this case the sacred mushrooms. At the end of the session, the shaman or harvester would go around to each of their mushroom stashes and put them all in one large sack… <i>a large sack</i>?!! Remind you of anything?! Not only this, as the story of the tradition goes, the shaman would then, carrying this large sack, visit the homes of his or her people and deliver the mushrooms to them. They would then continue the drying process by <i>hanging them in a sock, near the fire!</i></p>

<p>Another way to reduce the toxicity of the sacred mushrooms is through human filtration. Once passed through the body, the toxic elements are apparently filtered by the liver and the resultant urine that comes out contains the still intact psychoactive elements. So they drank the filtered urine. But that’s only half the story. Somewhere in the mythic origins of this practice is the reindeer. Because the reindeer also love these mushrooms. They dig through the snow to eat them, and they also drink their own urine afterwards. So perhaps, long ago, one of the first shamans witnessed the reindeer’s love affair with this peculiar mushroom – as well as its propensity for eating its own freshly yellowed-snow – and saw how peculiarly it behaved as the romance heated up. The curiosity (indeed a hallmark characteristic of a shaman) couldn’t be contained, and the shaman did what he had to do: he first ate some of the yellow snow himself… and without a doubt realized the profound wisdom and magic not only in the mushroom, but in the reindeer. And so this romance, too, began…<br/> <br/> However it may have happened in antiquity, the connection between the reindeer, the mushroom and the shamanism is apparent. A very common vision that one has while under the influence of Fly Agaric is precisely that: <i>flying</i>. Massive distortions of time and space occur, affecting scale in dramatic ways. Not only do you observe yourself flying, but also other things… <i>like reindeer</i>. It is not that difficult to connect the dots here. Shamanic people are deeply invested in their environment. They learn the magical and mystical properties of the natural world, and often assign a great deal of importance and sacredness to the bearers of that magic. For some of these ancient Siberian people, this power was charioted by the reindeer and the sacred mushroom. That the reindeer should have the ability to fly is evident not only in the vision, or their clearly altered state once intoxicated, but also in the wisdom they offered to the shamans by eating the mushroom in the first place, and for guiding them to do so just the same.<br/> <br/> It wasn’t only the reindeer who could fly, but the shamans also took flight. As mentioned, the shamanic journey or soul flight is a keystone in shamanic practice and especially so in ancient Siberian culture. In order to interact with the spirits, the shaman had to be able to leave this world and enter theirs. This was accomplished by projecting his or her spirit from the physical and into the immaterial. They either needed the power to do this on their own, or use a spirit helper to take them. It is very common for shamans to develop relationships with birds, naturally, as they have the power to fly. But here, in the North Pole, what better animal to use than the magical, flying reindeer?</p>

<p>There is one other component to the shaman’s flight that corresponds to our Christmas exploration, and this has to do with how they got to the other worlds. The shamanic cosmology often consists of three worlds: the Lower, Middle and Upper Worlds. Connecting the three worlds is a cosmic axis, which is also commonly known as the World Tree. The World Tree served as a bridge or portal that allowed a shaman and spirits to move between the three worlds. It was the gateway as well as the highway. In ancient Siberia, the same tree that also bore fruit to the amanitas was also a symbol for the world tree. The Evenki and other indigenous groups lived in roundish, teepee like structures called yurts. Sometimes they would place a pine tree in their yurts for ceremonial purposes. This symbolized the World Tree, and they would harness its symbolic power to propel their spirit up and out of the yurt – through the smoke hole, i.e. <i>the chimney</i>. Once the journey was complete, they would return through the smoke-hole/<i>chimney</i> with <i>the gifts</i> from the spirit world. They also believed that the North Star was the very top of the Upper World, and because the World Tree was an axis that connected the entire cosmology, <i>the North Star sat upon the very top of the World Tree</i> – which is where the tradition of placing a star at the top of the tree comes from.</p>

<p>One of the final elements of the Christmas tradition that we know today is the whole concept of gifting. What are we celebrating? When you begin to unravel the experience of the shaman’s flight and dance with Amanita, you enter a world that is deeply sacred. These shamanic cultures were intimately interwoven with their environments through the reindeer and the mushroom in a way that honored and celebrated the mysteries and magic that life and experience brought to the people. The shaman’s journey and return was ultra-important to the survival of the whole community. What they brought back with them was often a matter of life and death. And time and again the shaman and the people, through these experiences that they deemed not only sacred but divine, would learn knowledge and wisdom directly from the sacred plants, their journeys, and from the spirits they interacted with. This was a kind of life blood for their way of being. <i>This was the gift</i>. The celebration was actually a kind of celebration of life, continued survival and renewal; an honoring of the spirits, animals, plants and natural world that gave them <i>the gift of life and knowledge of life</i>.<br/> <br/> This brings us to the grand finally, the big present hidden way back under the tree: Jesus Christ, and the timing of his arrival on Earth. Concurrent with Jesus’ storied birth is a yearly alignment with the sun. On the December 21st winter solstice, the sun reaches its furthest southern point, bringing the northern hemisphere its longest night. For 3 days the sun remains apparently unmoving. On the morning of the 25th, the sun begins its northern ascent once again. This can be looked at as <i>the birth of the sun</i>, which has spent the winter traveling in the lower world, or the world of <i>darkness</i>. When the sun begins to climb once again, it is a time to celebrate the light – literally the <i>return of the light</i>, the <i>source of life</i> on Earth, and ultimately the assurance of the coming summer, which also means the survival of the natural world, the animals, the plants, the people and their way of life. Hence, life and the people <i>are saved</i>. To indigenous peoples who depended on the seasons’ movement and bounty – and especially for the far northern peoples of ancient Siberia – this was a monumental time. The sacred Amanita with its red, golden and orange coloring as well as its capacity to offer direct experience and connection with divinity was also regarded as a symbol for the Sun and its life-giving and saving properties. The Sun – or the Son – is the savior, born on the 25th of December as the bringer of light, harbinger and liberator of life on Earth.<br/> <br/> This is the gift and the meaning of the holiday we know as Christ-Mass. When you are decorating your tree, hanging the star, and doing your thing with red and white and presents – perhaps take a moment to reflect on the esoteric meaning of the shamanic origins of Christmas, and what the spirit of this tradition was and is all about.</p>

<p>Magicians of the Gods: Recovering Earth's Lost Civilization and Reawakening to Consciousness<br/> From Fingerprints of the Gods, published in 1995, to his explosive new book Magicians of the Gods, published in the US on 10 November 2015, Graham Hancock has spent 20 years in the front lines of historical and archaeological controversy. In this special talk he shares his unique experiences and perspective on the mysteries of the human past and explains why he's convinced we are a species with amnesia forced, more than 12,000 years ago, to begin again like children with almost no memory of what went before. In the teeth of opposition from orthodox historians, and an ideologically driven consensus, a new paradigm of prehistory is emerging that will change everything we have been taught to believe about the origins of civilization -- and about ourselves.</p>
<p><br/> Additional Special Sedona Presentation</p>
<p>"Psychedelics and Civilization"<br/> Psychedelics and the visionary states associated with them are demonized by the technological cultures of the 21st century and the mere possession of a psychedelic substance such as LSD, psilocybin or DMT can result in public humiliation, loss of property and reputation, and lengthy jail penalties. Things were very different in the antiquity. Indeed the evidence shows that many of the greatest civilizations of the past, from ancient Egypt to ancient Greece, and from ancient India to the ancient Americas, enshrined the use of psychedelics as a sacred practice and found immense value in the visions that ensued. Further back still, in the epoch of the great cave art 30,000 and more years ago, recent archaeological research suggests that shamanistic use of psychedelics was instrumental in the birth of the modern human mind. In this talk Graham Hancock investigates the possibility that by demonizing and criminalizing the use of psychedelics, rather than seeking out ways to harness their power for altering consciousness in safe and nurturing spaces, our society may have set itself on a profoundly negative path -- a path that might even deny us the next step in our own evolution as a species. <a target="_self" href="http://api.ning.com:80/files/Sg8I27-Rz4zdaW3aJ7NSMEI1nYFsAbIQcKOA-cjVHtCuJ6JeYdOphoA8nprfLyx6UdfrsdrqXt4ZOzxX6ztcQSPXUdDDi0Ao/MagicianFlyer4Print.jpg"><img class="align-full" src="http://api.ning.com:80/files/Sg8I27-Rz4zdaW3aJ7NSMEI1nYFsAbIQcKOA-cjVHtCuJ6JeYdOphoA8nprfLyx6UdfrsdrqXt4ZOzxX6ztcQSPXUdDDi0Ao/MagicianFlyer4Print.jpg?width=365" width="365"/></a><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/9CFqvl5k1zQ?wmode=opaque" frameborder="0" height="315" width="560"></iframe>

<p class="p1">MY EARLY ADVENTURES WITH PSYCHICS...AND HEALING FROM THE TRUTH ABOUT MY MOTHER.. AND WHAT HAPPENED..</p>
<p class="p2">Though my cousin Char was a psychic medium growing up - she was never close enough to my birth family to help mentor me with my gifts. Though i studied past-life regression with her sister Alicia, my birth family often criticized medium work behind her back and some in the family were even scared of her!.. Not cool - yet there are some in this family that have “fear programing” that causes this and a lack of spiritual understanding. Though I didn’t see her that often, I loved Char and know she has a good heart and truly helps people! she bought me one of my favorite books at the age of 6 - an encyclopedia of Charlie Brown that I absolutely loved to read! Since in my younger years didn’t allow me to have role models to help me in this area.. I suppressed much of my intuitive abilities even though my mom knew I had them. It first became apparent one Christmas holiday at a convention downtown when Helene (my dad's old girlfriend who married someone else and moved to LA) was sitting next to my mom at breakfast. It was a Dental convention and she was there with her husband Jack, also a Dentist. At the time, I was only 7 or 8 years old when my mother was sitting next to this woman. Without knowing a word about her, and hearing them discuss divorces, I told this lady: "my parents are happily married" as I felt a strong need to protect my parents and their marriage. Though there was not much discussion .. my mom was “blown away” by my actions that day and said “how and why did you do that!” Her face “lit up”that day as if to “thank you. “ Yet with energy..and intuition.. sometimes you really don’t need words to catch what is going on..</p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Since there was really no one to turn to in this lifetime developing or understanding things I was experiencing or my healing capabilities, my first outlet for my self-discovery before connecting to healers was the world of psychics. They really paved the way to develop and allowed me to use my own gifts of intuition. As a teen, there was wonderful women like Lila Seagul and later on, this tarot reader named Marilyn that showed me how to "tap in" and use my own gifts and intuition more so during my teen years and early twenties. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">My very first experience receiving a reading was when I was 11 years old. I wanted to go to a psychic for my birthday and so I had a grown-up birthday lunch that Saturday with my great Aunt Esther Goodman, who taught me to love reading and we spent my birthday together with my mom who drove us to this lady's house in Dearborn, Michigan. The lady's name was Fatima and she was from Lebanon. Her mediumship method was to read for her clients using Turkish coffee leaves that leave your energy in your cup after you have finished.. as yes.. your impressions are a form of energy. When she started to read for me .. she showed me an air plane, a pilot and the part of the world he came from and that we would have twins together. Anyone knows that the future can change..yet my mom was there listening in to the entire reading hearing this.. and so was my great aunt Esther Goodman. Aunt Esther's reading too was accurate, as she was widowed and the woman gave her messages and insight about my great Uncle who had passed over years before. She did this in a kind/loving way, much the way my cousin Char does for those who have lost loved ones. Despite hearing this.. my mother would not acknowledge it or recall it when it manifested and I started dating Sig in my thirties. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">There was also another turning point when I was 17 yrs old, and went with my good high school friend Gwen to a reading she arranged with a psychic named Lila Seagul. It was Lila who saw my unique path as a healer working with children too and my work with all different celebrities. Her method was pure mediumship and exact astrology - taking my exact, hour, minute, date and birth location on earth to calculate my chart. This woman was very wise and her energy was very Native American. While she lived half the year in Arizona, she spent the other half of the year in Detroit. She was in her 60s at the time and very mentally sharp and very very specific and detailed in her cassette taped readings. To this day, I have never met anyone quite like her before in knowing such astonishingly accurate details about the past and present - including that my grandma Rose was dying of stomach cancer and would pass the following spring.. Lila though had different words to say about my future based on my exact astrological blue print than the Turkish coffee reading lady and was blown away..something astrologer Cal Garrison also told me almost identically years later in my 40s (not knowing of this one and only astrology reading) - as she had only seen a chart like mine once before in her years of astrology. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">That day Gwen and I spent like 4 hours having our in-depth readings on cassette at Lila's house!. While Lila didnt mention Sig on this tape and I may have asked about an insignificant high school crush at the time that never amounted into anything..(as anyone in high school would do)..she did see me establishing myself and with what she described as an "aquarian type" of man connected with water as my mate this lifetime later in life in my late 30s - early 40s.. she also saw me and my path being very very different from the people in my soul group/surroundings growing up in Detroit. With nodes showing me living overseas and/or marrying someone from a different country. After going on and on about my grandmas cancer and my siblings life paths.. (all things that came true) she turned her attention to my father and how we were more older souls than the rest of my birth family. She also picked up on troubling spots in my parents marriage and went into detail. Though it was never discussed.. my father was "freaked out" when I innocently played the cassette for him! The next year he went searching for Lila in Arizona on his own ..as he really wanted a reading! as that is how accurate she was! Yet he never did find her again.. as she moved away. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Though I was still young, I was amazed that Lila could see my heart .. and my healing work with children and working with all different celebrities and being known for my work together with these people..All things that came true when i listened to the tape only a few years ago!.. Did I put my energy into this?.. No..in fact i forgot about this cassette and left it in a drawer for decades studying journalism and other pursuits! .. I just lived my life and took life one day at a time...and eventually I outgrew my psychic phase - relying on myself and my own energy. Years of spiritual studies and training as a healer.. lead me to be my own guide and I encourage others who have this gift to do the same. If you have heightened capabilities in this area you are born with.. use them for good in the world and - really be strong enough in yourself to follow your own path and guidance.. For every accurate, gifted and kind medium who uses their gifts to help others.. there are also those in this world who are frauds.. with no insight who can harm a naive or vulnerable person's path by "imprinting" false information. Therefore people should be careful who they go to.. and even those with heightened psychic facilities should be able to spot a fake and know the difference. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Psychic medium astrologers like Lila Seagul today are difficult to find... and that is why you should be your own guide on your path.. You don’t have to know what is coming..you can just feel and sense your way.. That is part of the learning process here at this time. Energy and spirit is always speaking from above and can help. Though Lila kept emphasizing on the tape that I was different and had a very very special path in life healing and helping with the masses and working with celebrities. ..It made me feel good..yet it was something I internally knew already ... as i was already connecting to my own gifts/energies from spirit and saught these people out not to read me.. for validation that what i was tuning into was the correct path with the the signs/messages I was receiving and that they were the “real thing.” I also realized that my mother had psychic gifts of her own too.. yet they were supressed from years (past life) of using them in the wrong way.. These were not discussed with me..yet they surfaced many times with healers and on retreats and in regressions as i got older and wiser..more “in tune” to my healing capabilities as I learned and studied.. We may pick our parents and they may pick us - yet we are not karmically responsible for the “bad behavior” or anyone elses..as we are only responsible for ourselves. All of us are at different levels of spiritual growth. Sometimes we pick these individuals to help them grow and they help us learn/grow too.. for me this particular lesson this lifetime is “speaking up” and using my Voice. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Back to the story.. this medium Lila was so unbelievably accurate! Not sure where the tape is today..yet she was so "right on!" . She also saw my parents troubled marriage, my father's lost love in LA that he did "drivebys"of her home with cousin Lenny my first year in LA and picked up on many things involving myself, my path and that of my siblings .. !</span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Not knowing what to do with my own intuitive gifts at a young age and "supressing them" to fit in made me feel very vulnerable at times - as my mom sensed i knew certain things my siblings didnt..</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Yet little did I know how vulnerable this tape would make me.. or that years later what a target it made me for my parents and their issues.. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">I never talked about it and i supressed so much to protect them..yet when you are fighting for your own life.. sometimes sharing your story is all that you have standing left between you and your own happiness..and protecting your life and your purpose. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Given my intuition, during my teen and adolescent years, I spent more time with friends being social - and removed myself from my parents as often as possible so my mother wouldnt "know" what I "knew," This was a way of protecting myself and getting away from the instability of their "movie" - as they could sure talk about other people's movie.. yet when I got the courage to use my voice and call them out on their own hypocrisy, toxicity and secrets that became "transparent" - they just couldnt deal with the truth. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">As I turned 18, I was forever seeking out different mentors to understand my gifts.. sometimes shamans, sometimes intuitive healers...just kind people who sometimes "understood me" and mentored/healed me and stuck to those parental roles in the family who loved me unconditionally..This includes Dorita - or "Dora the Explorer" my second mamacita in Calif and also my grandparents, </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">particularly my poppy George in Miami. On an intuitive level .. I know my grandma Rose and George put me out west with Dorita and Hal for protection and healing after they passed over.. first in the 90s and then years later..as they too sensed what was going on and what was needed for me to fufill my path. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Growing up in middle school, when I was around my mother, I was always neglected and slept much of the time after school.. something she told me was normal for my age..yet i wonder now if it was depression - as im not like that anymore and always felt in those years of adolescence like I had a sleeping spell on me! </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Fatima (my first psychic visit at 11) was the one to describe Sig in detail as my future husband and that we would have twins together.. again...That WAS.. the plan.. the imprint.. and whether it was imprinting or not..it was coming true..and he was there in my “real” movie” long before i met him.... yet with interference your future can be changed.. and mine was.. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">My intense regression work with gifted healers as an adult showed this path too.. and later the interference -including “crisp and clear” messages and my mom’s interference. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">When I was first dating Sig (a pilot) in my thirties, my friend Michelle Cline also took me to see a psychic in Garden City, MI. This time a man. Though his name I can’t recall, I clearly remember it was after Sig broke his left ankle water skiing (years before the movie "HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON" came out with my mom as the jealous green eyed dragon..and him as the viking boy with a broken left ankle) and I clearly remember testing his capabilities to read me.. as I was starting to do this with anyone that put me in the path of a psychic... so during this session, i took a stack of all different friends photos with me.. boys and girls .. and out of 50 different pictures... the man said Sig was my soulmate and the one I would have children with.. again.. though many good readers saw this..this isnt the outcome of my movie today.. and though my mother definitely energetically harmed my path.. I am really okay with it - as everything happens for a reason.. and you can have more than one story and more than one love in life..Ive experienced this.. so i know that.. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">I also have had new/renewed love and happiness in my heart this year to forgive and to move on.</span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">What i want today.. is my story told so that i can have more peace and healing in my life and retribution for what i have been through with these birth parents.. (as no one can imagine what that is like unless they’ve experience it themselves...) and the freedom to move on and be happy with new love without any more interference. I know my grandpa Jacobs in spirit wants it to.. as on his death bed as a little girl, he was speaking in German (his parents native tongue - though he was born in Yorkshire, England) , there were past and present life memories surfacing with much anger towards my mother.. screaming at her and calling her “QUEENIE” in his native tongue that he never spoke in..As a child it was shocking and frightening to witness.. yet I was so close to my grandfather and knew something was surfacing before he crossed over.. and working on my Jacobs family tree 2 years ago and all the “connect the dots” with my path including some as it related to Sig and other family members she intereferred with that came out .. was something she tried to stop me from opening up.... yet again.. my orphaned grandfather and my path with kids is what im here for ..and she could not stop the truth from coming out. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Though its been about 6 months since I’ve truly felt good and no longer haunted by this nightmare- my mother has still tried to harm me with no remorse for what happened and no compassion for the energy she put into harming Sig.. and I doubt I will ever get that out of her.. with the help of my grandparents in spirit.. I know they are helping me to find my voice and to speak up. and that she will heal when she is ready to.</span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">I looked at Sig’s site today for the first time in a long long time and he posted his boat floating around with his wife from Korea and has beautiful twins sailing around "BELLVILLE" as in (Bee/ Leslye /Lynn Ville.) - something we used to joke about as MY town.. and i thought.. this is crazy! ...yet that is what has happened..and peace and acceptance are key...so is forgiveness too. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Though I am a bit saddened by this fairytale turned nightmare I know my happy ending is here ..because the truth...MY TRUTH is transparent.. and even without words.. people feel in their hearts what has happened...and the loss I had to heal from. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">And though I was sad about this for a long time ...especially my mother putting energy and harm into Sig - a spiritual person would never seek revenge.. nor would this new Sig.. just pity that someone could be so low and cruel to harm so many people and will have to deal with what karma has in store for them. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Though I still work through forgiving myself for not following or admitting signs that were shown to me long ago.. that i didnt want to admit to myself i was seeing... I have learned to speak up, defend myself and protect my heart moving forward and can say that today I am in a much stronger place and love life! </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Writing is cathartic.. and though i have been through a lot with my mother and her black magic..as yes harming thoughts are just that...and can "energetically" harm others.. I mostly blamed myself for letting her do this to me.. and for harming Sig and my dad who had the heart aneurisym in the same hospital too at the same time when she pushed me to quite the UN and move to France 3 years ago.</span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Not knowing the extent of the damage she would do..and that I would allow this by not speaking up to defending myself.. ...I realized during this healing period the last few years that I am learning to use my Voice in the right way to speak up and defend myself and to follow this new path/direction. Something that i had to do past lifetimes too.. as this is a “repeat’ lesson for me.. and the new pattern I have set for myself. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">I have also learned that karmically it would bite her in the ass one day..and it did..and will continue to do so until she can learn to want well for me and other people in their love life without manipulation or harm. (something for her and my father to work out).. so that she doesn't cause pain or harm to any more people. She may learn to atone in this lifetime .. and she may not..Yet atleast the truth.. my truth..is out there. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Regarding me.. my healing is being divinely guided as this new chapter/journey in my life unfolds.. and like I teach my clients and know from experience..movies and future projections can always change..thats why when you are "in tune" to yourself - you don’t need a psychic to know what comes next.. and you follow your own thoughts, plans and dreams.. and they can change in a moment..</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">if we all knew the outcome we wouldnt be here!</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">and if you do still have curiosity and have to know..be careful who share your heart and wishes with.. that is what i have learned. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Today i have a new dream and plan...amazing adventures the last six months and more love and fun adventures to come! . </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">My father who dated and had many girlfriends in his lifetime before marriage.. said it best years ago when we went through his many adventures and picture books of girlfriends. He taught me that in life..you can "LOVE" more than one person.. I have felt that and I realize his words are true..yet I know better than to display my private life and personal photos in the future on social media after the tragic consequences of what i went through the past few years. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">My sisters too, are starting to distance themselves from my parents and connect to what they didnt want to see before.. and how my mom caused energetic events to occur so that family wouldnt like me or be around me.. they also stopped all of us from being close to each other to keep us "separate,” competitive and the focus on them. That is what narcissistic parents do. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Even in high school - my mom would hand me books on stoners and girls that were slutty...implying they were “my movie”.. when they were not me! it was hilarious to close friends who knew me just how ‘out of touch’ my mom was in understanding her own daughter!.. Yet she strongly projected it.. and many friends and family remember that she was toxic - constantly looking and telling stories about me.. wanting people to see the worst in me..</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Even as an adult this toxicity was still there. I will never forget a few years ago in LA when the movie "Silver Lining Playbook" came out and BOTH my parents were laughing at me.. saying that I was the character played by Jennifer Lawrence in the movie..</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Yes I did live in my relatives guest house - Dorita and Hal, and yes i had an old boyfriend Tom - yet this character was definitely NOT me..something my relatives know to be true too.. yet this experience was cluing me into just how harmful their energy and projections were becoming towards me.. It was one of the lowest points besides wishing Sig and me harm. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">My sister Pam and Lis - too were like little “followers” that parroted whatever my mom thought or sad.. even if it was mean, harsh or judgemental and out of touch with modern times .. including my mom's sheltered narrow-minded views in life saying over and over again "Its a man's world and women need to understand that" - like were time warped to the 50s! Yet thats small town Midwestern “mentality” for you.. They think they know everything..yet they are sheltered and know very little. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">My sister was never strong enough to stand up to my mom..and having a”lost love” in LA like my dad.. One that my mom made sure she never saw again..and the pain and anger they had at me over living there the past 8 years.. - was not my fault..yet it was used as "fuel" to put energy into me not being in LA....and was a common bond Pam and my dad shared in common. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">So you see ...from examples like these and my dad and old boyfriend Sig almost dying from the brain aneursym 3 years ago.. I have been through much pain and grief in the last few years.. yet im alright..and Im am a survivor! and i will no longer take crap from any of them.</span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">My mom may have wanted Sig to be with someone else and the "unrequited" past love she had for him (past life) was felt and witnessed by gifted healers like Christina G., Dorothy and many others who have worked with me on the LBL (Life Between Lifetimes) and energy healing sessions where her jealousy over my heart connection with Sig surfaced. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Yet Today,... the new Sig shows he is married with kids.. and Im truly happy for him.. as the “spirit” of the person i knew and loved left on that day in August when the accident happened and never returned..</span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Though my mom is so happy about what happened... she will never hurt me or someone I love anymore! .. and she will be never really know what that kind of love feels like with her jealousy... She also wont hurt the new Sig and wife/family as from writing this - its protection.... The past is the past.. and my heart is healing nicely.. and I know and feel much love and protection around me..and know that by sharing my story that something like this will never ever happen again because there is too much love and humanity in this world to ever allow it too with it finally coming out!</span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">While I am a very forgiving person and the Sig I knew was too.. we both have moved on with our lives.. ..yet other people in this world are not so much this way.. and my mother would be a fool to ever fly Delta airlines again or think that people want to be around her knowing the kind of energetic harm she has managed to create. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">When two parents cause their children pain and they cant "own it" or "identify it" .. they will “own it” and understand it.. when they leave this world.</span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">With the history of what has happened.. .I am not a victim.. I am here to write about it to finally close this chapter.. and start anew.. continuing to stay as far away as possible from my parents while continuing to heal from the sense of sadness over what they have done in this family. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Regarding this "new" Sig post brain aneurisym - I only want him and his family be happy. (i was haunted by him 6 months ago when Norway builders were building next door to my home) .. yet It was also leading me to explore my own Scandinavian roots abroad and enjoy my next exiting adventure in my life.. and i know there is more to come! </span></p>
<p class="p3"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">The old Sig that I knew (pre-brain aneurysm) who was so into me intellectually, physically and emotionally - body and soul is gone.. The new Sig may have the same "shell" on the outside..yet the person inside is a completely new spirit .. and not the person in the photos with me. There is no heart connection anymore and therefore I am not tuned into him anymore.... Time heals all wounds and travel and new experiences.. brings new life ...new love and new joy..&lt;3</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">The past is over.. the damage was done.. and I am fine :) </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">On this day.. the holiest of days.. the Days of Atonement in the Jewish religion.. I pray for more forgiveness for myself and others.. and for continued healing. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">I also pray that these two souls who brought me into the world truly understand and feel all the pain and hurt they have caused this family and other people so that it stops for good! </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">In addition to my parents I also forgive myself for doing the best I can to BE MYSELF.. to heal the wounds/pain my birth parents have caused me and others.. and I to forgive myself for not speaking up sooner.. to avoid my father and Sig from having their aneurysms. Yet i realize that things happen for a reason.. and its not my fault....yet a test for me to finally speak up and defend myself.</span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Today and during this eclipse - I continue to focus on the present moment and all the blessings in the coming year with my focus on service and helping others with my work and the magical healing on its way.. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Yes today I am in the present moment and loving life.. yet on the rare occasion when i do occasionally think of the old Sig i once knew... I think of it as a fond place in my memory bank of a person I once loved and knew for over a decade. Like my dad., I too, have loved more than one person and I love again.. as the new chapters in my life have already begun &lt;3 </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">And as I continue to be happy and healthy, I am very much focused on manifesting and clearing the path to help more kids and heal more adults too to "survive and thrive" from abusive situations by sharing my story. Wishing Everyone a beautiful autumn equinox.</span></p>

<p class="p2"></p>PART 1: Reflections on this Autumn Equinox during one of the holiest days of the year - Yom Kippurtag:www.worldviewzmedia.net,2015-09-24:2098065:BlogPost:990722015-09-24T02:30:00.000ZLeslye Jacobshttp://www.worldviewzmedia.net/profile/LeslyeJacobs
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><b>PART 1: Reflections on this Autumn Equinox during one of the holiest days of the year - Yom Kippur. </b></span></p>
<p class="p2">Though I am a spiritual person - not religious, Ive worked very hard at forgiveness.. Yet there is much even my closest friends don't know about me that I was saving in my memoirs.

<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><b>PART 1: Reflections on this Autumn Equinox during one of the holiest days of the year - Yom Kippur. </b></span></p>
<p class="p2">Though I am a spiritual person - not religious, Ive worked very hard at forgiveness.. Yet there is much even my closest friends don't know about me that I was saving in my memoirs. Sharing some of it today heals me and in is quite cathartic for me on this "holy day" of atonement and must be said. Though I have often written about what I have been through with my abusive parents - particularly my abusive/controlling mother, something very few of my peers have really understood.. yet I pray every day for love, healing and forgiveness - like I do every day.. </p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Yet in the last few years looking back on the traumatic events that I have had to experience.. I have often asked myself .. how do I forgive a mother who has put energy into harming me and controlling me and other people's paths? </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">And how do you deal effectively and compassionately with those that don't understand energy and how someones intentions can harm other people? Communicating in the best way possible is something I work hard at.. You can forgive a person who is mentally sick.. yet you cant always forget.. and so you go around those who get you..and support you.. and love you.. and you stay away from those who don't.</span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Yes Cora from Storybrooke in the show "ONCE" is like my mother.. or should i say she was the like King "Uther Pendragon" in MERLIN on the BBC.. with her narrow-mindedness growing up and her control trips - especially for those who used their light-healing gifts for good in this world.. yet that is what it felt like growing up with this person as my mother. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Though I'm no Regina..and have some of the qualities of the character "Emma"... I am not a good or bad witch with powers.. I am me.. my own soul.. and my own person with my own story to tell.. ..and Im feeling stronger and healthier every day for speaking out and sharing these truths.. It is for my souls purpose and for my protection that I am sharing this today. It is also for the protection of all children including my six niece and nephews - so that their paths and their heart will never ever be controlled or tampered with - not while i am around to protect them. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">As I have written about... The past is over... and though i cant change what happened or how my mother treated me...or other people I love that were hurt in the process.. What I can change is how I deal with it and my future.. and as a writer - I choose to write about it to heal.. In fact, while writing this blog today, I surrounded myself with white prayer candles and prayed for "extra protection" and guidance to use the right words to express myself.. as I received a phone call from a company while writing this .. saying I didn't pay my cable bill since 2012, when I pay it every month on-time. I explained to this bill collector who was "in error" that I had a heated exchange with my mother threatening me with bad credit this morning (which i don’t have) and that she was trying to shut me down - and offered to email her a snapshot of my online payments from my bank .. which nice lady Andrea quietly understood. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">More validation that this story needs to be told. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">My whole life I have spent trying to get away from my troubled youth and dysfunctional parents since healing/helping my mother especially was not working.. so i ask if you are reading this.. to say a silent prayer that she gets healed or removed from my movie..</span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">It was healers/lightworkers that helped me realize that my path was designed this way to help children for me this lifetime to stand up and using my Voice and to get away from her trying to harm my path and that of my ancestors who have guided me with my work helping children.. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">As I have written many times.. it was not my job to heal my mother..and any kindness towards her was used to harm me.. so here it goes.. the cardinal rule is .. you can pray for someone's well being.. yet you can never heal someone you dont have permission to heal. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">As some of my friends and acquaintances know from my blogs, in my thirties, my ex-boyfriend Sig and I tried have children and it never happened.. with many energies and blocks in our path to be together - mostly from my mother..much of our connection was kept private and the strain was too much to be together at times. Years later, I had a miscarriage (though not very far along) and as many of you know, I was dismissed and treated like an outcast - especially by my mother and two sisters who had nothing to do with me. Yet flash back to 2000.. during my first year dating Sig..back to the start of the story.. when he actually met my birth family for the first time at my mother's birthday dinner at Ruth Chris in Troy, Michigan. Dinner was fun for us.. yet the interference and anger of our playful affection displayed towards one another was felt by my birth family at the table..and they were NOT happy about it. Anger especially was felt by my mother with who was irritated and uncomfortable with our playful affections towards one another. In fact, my siblings were annoyed too, as my mother only approved of more formal behavior and those who didn't display public displays of affection.. Anyone who had a true heart connection around her angered her. Especially because my cold father never hugged her or showed her much affection.. she was seething under the surface on this day.. and wanted me to date men who were like my dad.. "cold" and not that affectionate..and not into treating woman with displays of affection. Since this first meeting with Sig was her birthday.. it was "All about me" - the first children's book I wrote that year to help heal children and teach them to play with their "inner-child" something essential - that everyone know and love themselves..especially during childhood devlopment. During this first impression meeting, Sig did the right thing and bought her flowers.. as i insisted..like other boyfriends in order to "keep the peace." and blend into the scenery. Years later when Sig and I broke up and I moved out west.. my mother came over the last day i packed up my house in 2004.. and she was crying.. yet i distinctly felt and realized that day that they were not tears of a mother who would miss their daughter.. .. they were tears knowing she put energy/harm into Sig and I not being together and being with other people (Other things came out showing me this..)....My dad on the other hand.. couldn’t even see me that year to say goodbye.. as he had that vision for Sig and I together knowing and feeling his past-life connection to us both.. yet being together .. it reminded my mom of my dad's connection to his lost love Helene for some reason.. perhaps the chemistry? yet it was sadly projected onto us as a couple.. Leaving Detroit for good that day was an akward day to say the least and I ended up in bed with an 100 degree temp and the flu from packing my house up myself - while my sister Pam was called to help with the movers..given my health. Again, the signs - it was clear to me.. yet i just wasn’t brave enough to speak the truth or acknowledge what was going on.. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Shortly after moving west, I was overjoyed being around my cousins and Dorita who was the mother figure i so needed in my life to raise me up and boost my self-esteem. A few months later.. I met Tony.. yet when my parents visited that winter.. my mom never had a problem with him because he just wasn’t that into me and like my father, Tony was a cold fish publically and privately with not much affection but with friendship.. He was a good person and a good friend.. but dating him was more a learning lesson.. showing me mirrors in his life of my dysfunctional parents and their relationship I endured in childhood. My father on the other hand, sensed Tony was a bit of a player and much like my father in his younger days.. He also felt bad for Sig and didn’t really like Tony for me and sensed we didn’t have a deep connection. Yet my mom liked him for his mistreatment of me - and when they criticized me.. they loved that Tony would "chime in" and put me down with them. Something i wasn’t going to tolerate for very long. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Since Tony was somewhat established in life, treated me to nice dinners and not overly affectionate, my mom was somewhat accepting as Tony made my parents feel more secure and "less threatened" in their own marriage. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> Yet, as I tell clients... there are all different kinds of love and relationships in this world and you cant make someone stop comparing themselves to your movie - especially a mother that never dated or had any warmth to her.... and you cant cure someone's insecurities.. All you can do is accept people as the are and move on... </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">After moving out west, I eventually become more wise and didn't put my heart and feelings on display in a family that married more for status, position and to be "taken care of" financially instead of a real heart connection..yet pictures and chemistry of people always tell the truth.. It became apparent looking at old family photos.... as pictures tell a thousand words.... </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">People in the privacy of their own bedrooms and relationship should be able to know the true worth of what they really have with a person..and those who are true to themselves..shouldn't need mom or dad's approval or disapproval.. as YOU are the captain of your own heart.. and I really wasn’t a rebel.. I was a "good girl" with a few relationships - yet I was also a truth teller and a wisdom keeper who saw and felt the dynamics of dysfunction that other people in my family couldn't see or admit to themselves. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">My escaping was really protection for me, my heart and my path. This especially became apparent when my parents had one of their abusive episodes a few months ago forcing me to I cancel my plans to see them after this 5 year separation since my father and Sig had their aneurisyms at the same time 3 years ago. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Flash back to this past summer, my parents wanted me to fly in for a family reunion that was more "for show" to try to salvage their reputation than really wanting to see me. It was also my dad's wish with close friends losing their father to make peace with me now that he is in his 80s and unable to protect me anymore from my mother and her controlling ways. Something he has felt bad about.. With dementia and old age - her "group hate" has become his hate too for survival.. and when I speak the truth it hurts him and his heart.. so i don't call or talk to him much these days.. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> After canceling this visit with my parents, I was hit in the back of the head really hard in a rear end car accident a half hour later. Though i was okay, this left me with a slight concussion! The man who hit me was really apologetic and polite and so was his daughter.. yet my head was throbbing and I really needed an ambulance - yet i didnt have insurance so i didnt dare call for one..and healed it myself. Yet the energy of them trying to harm me this past summer was directly felt! and when they went to their family reunion - they acted as if they didnt know anything happened to me when they knew the truth of what their anger caused.... my cousins too that day noted how "preoccupied" they were with their own lives and movie that they couldn’t be bothered mentioning it.. let alone, asking anyone else about their lives. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">SInce this incident..I write about it for protection and to ensure it never happens again.. as my messages and the source of where energy is coming from is always "crisp and clear" .. again..writing is my purpose and my protection and I especially feel safe with everyone more clued in to what has happened. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Though there are the rare occurences of "real true love" in my family .. like my Aunt Nancy and Uncle Bob who were together since the age of 13 or my grandparents or even my brother during the honeymoon stages of his engagements and Lis and Mark too. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">What I learned, was that too much display of mutual affection between two people still makes my parents angry and uncomfortable..yet when there is no chemistry or real sparks between souls.. my parents are okay with it.. as the way my mother wanted me to be "unhappy" mirrored the same jealousy/resentment my father had when my brother is in love or "lovey-dovey" with a partner.</span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">In fact, with his new girlfriend Patti - (who i have never met) I had to set my father straight a few days ago - as he was saying harmful things about my brother that he is a slut and has different children from different women.. This couldn’t be farther from the truth! my brother is a good man - he just wants to please my parents and he doesn’t want to admit to himself that he has been trying to please them his whole life at the expense of his wife, his children and his own happiness.. It is my hope for him whatever he choose that he does not let my parents dictate his love life anymore, his heart or his decisions... It is also my hope that he grows in compassion and kindness... especially towards me as his sister with what I have been through. I can wish that for him, yet these are lessons he will learn from my example. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">...yet the same way my parents have tried to harm me...my parents were doing a few days ago to my brother.. and that is why even though my big brother is far from perfect why sometimes "I am the Voice" for him... to point things out to him when he cant see the truth or doesn't want to hear it, face it or admit it to himself. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Though I am focused on "my own movie" these days.. It is for the protection of his path, his reputation, his heart and his family that i defended him last week. I don't think my father will be saying or doing this to hurt my brother anymore - as its simply NOT true and I will not stand for it. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Being the youngest, I witnessed my mother controlling my sisters dating choices too.. insuring that ex-loves she didnt like or "approve of" never made it and were dumped....including Pam's ex in LA - Lewis, Lisbeth's broken engagement to Keith and my brother's ex-fiancee Jennifer that she clashed with before he married Karen - and both who my mom grew "disenchanted with" because Randy really was following his heart. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">To control her own unhappiness, my mother enjoyed when people were not happy.... and by controlling her own environment and that of her children's choices by cultivating "status" trophy marriages around her that were more business decisions - it made her feel powerful and it gave her something to "brag" about.. - Something as “Real” as deep heart connections - was foreign to her and made her feel threatened. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">To understand and be secure with different types of relationships was not possible for her.. especially since she was a woman who never dated anyone before she met my father at 19. Even so, her character was always using "logic" -not heart as a very cold and emotionless person.. that clashed with me..as a person following a “heart” path. For example, I never once received a hug or a kiss growing up and now Im sure to always kiss and hug people I love and care for and make sure they know it! Fortunately for me.. Dorita and my grandparents taught me what its like to receive love and affection as surrogate mother and father figures - and Im so grateful I had that growing up - when many children dont! </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Childhood issues that caused my mother to be cold are not necessarily my grandparents fault. It was her character. There are many foster, adopted and single parent homes too were the children are perfectly loving and kind - so you cant always blame it on childhood issues when someone's character is like this..</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">its just who they are. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">I tried to help my mom heal with Louise Hay and other meditations.. yet developing heart can only be shown by example..and that person will learn to grow a heart when they are ready.. Her way of showing love was spending money for my education and my early travelsI (yet with resentment).. even to this day with all I have been through.. I still have much love/gratitude for this experience and education.. yet that is not love. Yet she does not understand this fundamental difference. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">It was my mothers lack of experience that made a mysogynist and insecure father like mine feel secure in knowing that my mom knew nothing about love and the world. I share this story.. not for pity.. or to harm them .. but to show others what ive been through to help those in abusive families to heal and grow.. especially parents like mine that sought to harm and control me. .. to the extent that they were willing to try and destroy me with energy a few months ago. That is NOT ever going to happen again!.. especially with this blog and my faith, prayers and protection. Ive learned and know too much to ever let that happen.. and people feel it and know it too. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">The lesson here for others reading this is that when you do have someone</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">special in your life that you love..know that sometimes you must protect it and protect your heart. Atleast in the present moment.. i hope too by sharing my story that all forms of meanness and petty jealousy goes away for good in our world..</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">It would be a much better place if it did. I know this is a big lesson for me as I explain the turn of events here from my early days up until now.. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">For a sample of what love looked like with my ex-boyfriend - the Sig I knew </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">that is no longer spiritually here today.. here is a photo.</span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">The past and this person I knew are gone.. yet this is what LOVE looks like</span></p>
<p class="p1">like the song "I will remember you" I have never shared a photo of the two of us until today as rememberance of the past. Today, I have only good memories.. yet i have so much love in my heart that I have created and will continue to develop this new chapter in my life thats unfolded this year in "my movie" as I am happy and I am healed and im in LOVE with life.. what this new story will be.... &lt;3 </p>

<p class="p2"></p>The Transgender and Cross-dressing Community and My Experience/Compassion for Their Path..tag:www.worldviewzmedia.net,2015-09-17:2098065:BlogPost:993432015-09-17T16:30:00.000ZLeslye Jacobshttp://www.worldviewzmedia.net/profile/LeslyeJacobs
<p class="p1">During the spring, our world was changed with Bruce Jenner's monumental decision to come out of the closet and be his "authentic self." The Olympic athlete on the Wheatie's box became "Caitlyn Jenner" and the world is learning about unconditional love from watching it unfold weekly on "I am Cait" - whether our world wants it or not - it is here. </p>

<p class="p2">Having traveled, worked and interviewed many people in the Transgender community, I was so very happy to see him doing this as a role model to help others make this transition.</p>
<p class="p2">As an educator - this is also helping the educational community adjust too. This is especially important when we have gender reassignment centers in San Francisco reporting stats of 2-3% of children today reporting feeling as if they are in the wrong gender. Figures for adults estimate at least 700,00 American adults out there reporting that they fell their internal gender identity does not match the gender they had since birth. Many who identify as being born in the wrong gender or who have cross-dressed have attempted suicide, especially those in their formative years that were not given the love/support they needed.</p>
<p class="p1"></p>
<p class="p2">This is something we can no longer afford to ignore. As educators, healers and psychologists we want to be a sensitive to the needs of children and families while presenting support/education in the best possible light with the utmost care as our world transitions too..</p>
<p class="p2">When talking to social workers and experts in this area, many young people report wanting to identify or dress in a way opposite to their birth to experiment and try out different roles. Any parenting magazine will tell you this is quite a common occurrence with boys and girls. As we learned in Childhood Development courses, parents should not worry when this occurs, as the vast majority of children outgrow it and are oftentimes trying out different roles as experimentation. Parents often cause more problems when they look too deeply into it. </p>
<p class="p2">What is especially important is for parents is to not "assume" that a child is born this way if it goes beyond just dressing as the opposite sex.. as sometimes a child is experimenting and what is not shown in mainstream media is the number of gender change regret statistics out there.</p>
<p class="p2">One high profile case in the transgender community was 70s pioneer Renee Richards who doesn't regret the surgery - but regretted the fame that came with it. Some like their gender and are happily married to the opposite sex and only identify with cross-dressing - something one of my interview subjects, child actor Larry Mathews was lead to do after enjoying dressing up at Halloween time. Larry played little Richie Petrie on the old Dick Van Dyke show and was my one and only assignment on the topic of cross-dressing. Despite it being an uplifting story and interview, certain family were not ready for him to "be himself" and though he called my Editors with the idea for the story it ended up leaving him sad and depressed and angry at us for printing the interview. Like Larry, some people only want to dress in different costume, and that needs to be identified too, so that the spectrum of understanding with these differences are noted and understood. </p>
<p class="p2">Whether cross dressing or transgender identity are the issues - it takes courage for a person to be themselves and pioneers like Renee Richards were not allowed access to the US Open in 1976 after undergoing re-assignment surgery the year before. Her courageous fight to overturn this decision within the US Supreme Court made her one of the first pioneers for transgender rights. </p>
<p class="p2">If your a parent and you are concerned that there is a gender issue beyond playing dress up and experimenting in fashion, It is suggested that you talk to different educators, school psychologists, teachers and other parents to learn as much information as possible to support your child and obtain the best resources to be of help. </p>
<p class="p2">Two different studies in 2013 and 2014 looking for the biological "root cause" in gene mutations involved in sexual differentiation found no evidence that a child is born in the wrong body. That is why children expressing a desire to be different or identifying a gender beyond just dressing differently as the opposite sex may have an underlying root cause that needs care. These often include stress or depression brought on by divorce, death of a parent, an unstable or unsafe home life, domestic violence in the home, emotional, physical or sexual abuse, neglect, etc. </p>
<p class="p2">Therefore parents/helpers again - must tread very carefully and work first with identifying the root cause of a child's desire to change or dress in the opposite gender and be as supportive as possible. For every successful transition of an adult like Bruce Jenner or pioneer education advocate Jessica Lam, there is also stories of those who regret it because they never were treated properly to help identify the "root cause" of their depression/feelings. </p>
<p class="p2">Therefore, there is no clear cut answer for a child with gender identity issues. Like anyone else in our society, any child showing confusion and even certainty about their preferred gender should be treated with professional counseling to be sure and with much love/compassion. </p>
<p class="p2">In addition to the above interview mentioned, my compassion for drag queens and others in the transgender community started with a few different experiences I had early on in my teens, working as a reporter and while traveling and studying in the I/0 Psychology Dept. at University of Detroit-Mercy. </p>
<p class="p2">One experience I had was at 18, when I traveled to the middle east (Lebanon and Israel) through a tour that was cancelled. This was on my way back from visiting my best friend from high school who was from Athens, Greece. Though I didn't have friends or know anyone in Israel, I found my way around and stayed with a beautiful Palestinian family at their family run Bed and Breakfast in the heart of old town Jerusalem right near Bethlehem - south of there in the West Bank.</p>
<p class="p2">Though we didn't talk religion or politics, they were the most loving and kind family - and were </p>
<p class="p2">sadly treated like "second class citizens" for not serving in the Israeli Army, as required by all citizens living on this land. They were also not allowed to eat or socialize at night in Ben Yahuda square and my first night I saw kids brutally chased and kicked out of the district by soldiers who saw they were trying to pass as Israeli. This was confusing to me at first glance, as ALL the people looked the same to me as a foreigner - there was no cultural difference in my eyes, yet to witness this cruelty and lack of freedom was quite unsettling to me. It was not right, yet if you talk to some Israeli's about this incident today - they will agree that relations are much better and that our world is changing for the better.. May everyone have a heart on this and all land - as all people need love and acceptance and yes, this is historical land to be loved, cultivated and taken care of together with the people in unity.</p>
<p class="p2">Back to the story.. What made this family so special to me was the way this particular family embraced Sami -their transgender artistic son with unconditional love. He was not treated any differently for dressing as a woman and his paintings filled his parents entire home and business. Every morning they made fresh breakfast and strong middle eastern Turkish like coffee and treated me as if i was their own daughter. </p>
<p class="p2">It was the most beautiful experience for me during my stay in Jerusalem - besides the highlights of seeing other parts of Israel where monumental events occurred in the Bible -ie. Where "David slung Goliath" "Masada" and of course the joy of floating in the Dead Sea and seeing blisters on my feet completely evaporate. So many cultures/religions share this land and you really feel it when you visit different parts. For example, many fail to realize that over a million Muslim people live in Israel along with Christians and Jews. It is truly a melting pot. Yes, the middle-east is truly a beautiful magical place that deserves peace and to be loved/cherished by EVERYONE like every other place on earth. </p>
<p class="p2">In my early 20s I was also introduced to the Drag Queen/Transgender community working as a celebrity/nightlife reporter in Miami. My first Editor, Andrew Delaplaine of Wire - gave me my first reporting job while at the University of Miami -and during this particular assignment I stood up for Miami's most well known Drag Queen performer - Kitty Meow -a.k.a. Shawn Palacious - as event handlers in Miami for the grand opening of this new restaurant/bar I was assigned to cover were not treating him right. The event organizers made the well known drag queen performer stand behind a giant Elsie the Cow - hiding her all night from guests in attendance. Something that outraged many of us at the event, particularly my editor, well known publicist Charlie Cinnamon and newspaper staff who all witnessed what had happened and were upset by it. *See photo attached of Kitty Meow today - still performing! </p>
<p class="p1">Another experience I had early on with the transgender community occurred when I was 16 traveling with a group of teen girls from Lake Forest - A Catholic School in Lake Forest, Illinois to England. This group trip was arranged through a sister travel program with my high school Cranbrook-Kingswood and included twenty or so wild Catholic girls that behaved as if they were let out of prison! The tour took us everywhere in and around London and Paris before I stayed that summer with my father's first cousins to learn about the Jacobs family across the pond. It was culturally a real "eye opener" for a sheltered young girl like me from Detroit, as I had never been exposed to the transgender community. Though American teens my age were already familiar with glam bands experimenting with make-up like Duran Duran, the androgynous make-up wearing Robert Smith from "The Cure" and bands like the Human League - the scene in London at the time was much different and "dress up" was much more open and accepted there as compared to the states. Our first night off the plane our group had tickets to Royal Albert Hall in London to see Pete Burns and the band "Dead or Alive" In the US, they had their 1 hit song: "You Spin Me Right Round." This song - along with Frankie Goes to Hollywood were huge at the time and the London fashion scene was amazing and so different from Detroit! I was so inspired everywhere I went by fashion and self expression on the streets. What I especially noted was that the music scene was full of bands with these men that were not afraid or self-conscious dressing in drag - something new for Americans except for the underground gothic scene of downtown Detroit - and young boys in my elementary school in the 70s dressing up as Gene Simmons or Paul Stanley from Kiss was the extent of what I was exposed to in the midwest. This new London 80s music scene was new for me and one of many culture shocks our group experienced in London that summer. The other, was the freedom to go explore a big city myself at such a young age - exciting yet with consequences at the same time. One night, an older business man jumped in front of the tube - (the London Underground) before it stopped at the platform. My friend and I were waiting at the station to go to another rock concert at Peter Stringfellow's Hippodrome and the neighborhood we were in to catch the tube was not feeling very safe. Yes, I was traumatized by this incident - and instead of clubbing at a show, my friend and I spent the entire night as police witnesses talking to Scotland yard and a psychologist who insisted on calling my parents to tell them what had happened. The whole incident felt surreal as one minute we were waiting for the train noticing the scary looking gang members/punk rockers waiting for the train next to us, and the next minute this business man in suit and coat jumps from the platform in front of the train. When the blood hit the front of the train - it splattered on the train drivers window and on the platform spraying our shoes. It was like seeing a frog bob "up and down" in a blender. That is the only way to describe it. As I stood frozen on the platform the gang members who appeared so scary to me a few moments before were running upstairs with fear and panic in their faces..while I stood still at the platform - catatonic and traumatized from my delayed reaction to what had just occurred and completely unable to move. Yes, it was quite scary.. My connection to energy was changing me in London - the city my orphaned grandfather called home before he moved to the states had many types of people and strong Native American energy was felt. Earlier that day before the incident, I had purchased my first Native American "healing protection" bracelet at one of the street markets.. and believe it really protected me that day. Facing my fears, I had to go on the train the next day for our site-seeing excursions and somehow I was okay. That's all it takes sometimes to conquer a fear is to face up to it and your healed. </p>
<p class="p2">Back to the story about Royal Albert Hall and the "Dead or Alive" concert…. To my surprise we were the only females at the show that night in London, and the only ones who were NOT men in Drag! and long before my past life Hopi Ties with my grandfather Albert came out in healing/training workshops- I realized that … Yes.. these men across the pond in a different country did not feel self-conscious or out of place dressing up as women and were the most beautiful divas I had ever seen.. The "mystique" was taken away - and drag queens were my friends, my confidants and beauties I admired for their self-love, expression, fashion style and self-care. In fact all the music I was exposed to during my formative years that London summer in the 80s during LIVE AID had an androgynous drag queen quality to it that was foreign and misunderstood culturally by most Americans. I attribute many of these 80s cross-gender dressing glam artists and bands as heavily influenced by the 70s glam punk rock scene the decade before with David Bowie and the Sex Pistols.. This produced a whole new group of British Musical Artists in the 80s and many of my favorites were working with EMI and the production team of Stock, Aitken and Waterman who I wanted to work studying voice and learning about what it would take to be A &amp; R woman in a field with very few woman at the time. Songs like "Love and Pride' by King were on the airwaves as were glam bands/artists that included: Adam Ant, Kajagoogoo, Scritti Politti (one of my personal favorites), Boy George and Marilyn, Haysi Fantayzee, Human League, Depeche Mode, the Cure and so many more! What these British artists had in common was that they were all dressing and singing somewhat in an androgynous /drag queen sort of glam way and only a fraction of their songs were making the US airwaves as after all - there was no internet back then to share music internationally like there is today. </p>
<p class="p1"></p>
<p class="p2">Years later - when I delved deep into my Native American roots with Drunvalo and Native American healers here in the states.. I felt the deep connectivity to some of the ritualistic dances/costumes.. particularly in the Native American and Hopi culture and how it related to the British music scene I saw in London in the 80s.. It started with the music of Pete Burns concert /music opening the set that night with the same similar flute playing… it was like one big Hopi "flash back" - only these Native American men and their traditional dress are not part of the transgender definition - nor do they see their costumes, rituals or shaman medicine men as dressing in drag…. yet these artists definitely had some Ancient Native American "past life" in them surfacing in the present with their performances… and we all know music and dance and the arts heals.. we've known that for centuries.. .. sharing many similar traits on stage with their make-up and Scottish-like kilt skirts worn in ceremonial dance that are also on the Hopi Kachina's and worn by Hopi men was like viewing a native ceremony. In fact, both men and woman in many Native American cultures traditionally had roles taking part in storytelling, music, dance, artwork and healing - much like artists do today. Many videos too, like Adam Ant and "Personal Jesus" by Depeche Mode and this video for "Love and Pride" shown here by King reflect that:</p>
<p class="p2"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YlXtrnh-Ejo">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YlXtrnh-Ejo</a></p>
<p class="p2"> all had a Native American element/vibe to it.. so the connectivity was there. </p>
<p class="p2">As our world adjusts to this precipice of change occurring at this moment with a new love/emergence happening for all cultures including the Transgender community - something they have been striving for over the last few decades.. it feels very connected and rooted in past life for me too….</p>
<p class="p2">especially for me with connecting events in my present life having a British orphaned grandfather from Germany who was my Native AMerican medicine teacher past life and my first experiences in London related to to my Native American past lifetime and similarities with the Hopis way of life.. </p>
<p class="p2">There is a "connect the dots" for everyone in this way to cultures they know that surface in the present if they are open to it on their path. </p>
<p class="p2">I feel fortunate that I was lead to encounter these wonderful transgender and cross dressing souls during work and travels who agreed to incarnate here on earth at this time. They have worked hard to help raise the vibration of love, peace, unity, tolerance and acceptance in our world and their road up until now has not been an easy one. Any one a little different can relate to that - especially artists.. Only an advanced soul could have taken the amount of rejection, heartache and pain of society to have made it this far leading up to these times of more acceptance/unity and understanding that is upon us.</p>
<p class="p1">Pals Around the World represents and stands for diversity in our world. We are a "Bee Hive" of people who see and accept people of all different backgrounds, cultures, career paths and preferences. We represent this diversity - as long as a person is not harming others with their way of life, we must find a way to understand it and accept it. </p>
<p class="p2">As society prepares and embraces for more change in our world - our group of educators are along for the ride to help education fluidly help inform and educate - to embrace and accept those different from ourselves in the LGBT community in a palatable and sensitive way that works with our current curriculum/structure for hosting Pals Ambassador visits. </p>
<p class="p2">We are therefore working to have transgender Pioneer Jessica Lam as our next Pals Around the World Ambassador. She is an educator, mother and transgender pioneer who made her change in her 20s to female as a young parent to 5 and 6 year old boys. In addition to working full-time as a birthday party planner and Pioneer educator.counselor, she is also the author of the children's book: "The Adventures of Tina and Jordan." Her book is registered in the Library of Congress to help educate our children and help parents too on how to treat those who dress differently on the playground.</p>
<p class="p2">In addition to being a pioneer counseling students and speaking to both the Transgender Community and to Larry King Live, she gives high school level presentations about being transgender. We feel honored and happy to share her story and hope our group of educators do too with this becoming a mainstream topic. With movies like "Straight Outta Compton" and the "Danish Girl" coming out this month about the first transgender surgery - both rumored for Oscar nominations - the plights of different people are topics we cannot sweep under the rug any longer. </p>
<p class="p2">Like the custom of dress and the Native American flutes playing at the beginning of the "Dead or Alive" concert that took me back in time to Native American rituals lifetimes ago ..in my present lifetime (1980s, London)…. we must look for the similarities in each other ..to better understand and not just to focus on the differences.</p>
<p class="p2">Love, Unity and Compassion are key.. I hope by sharing this personal story that people reflect and grow before they make judgement of others or fear them because they are different. A heart really should not have to be labeled by their appearance or gender preference and this community's time in the spotlight is long overdue. They are here to tell their story and educate us to make our world a better more loving place. </p>

<p class="p1"><span class="s1">As I have written about many times in my blogs and memoirs in progress…life for me since my spiritual awakening has seemed to be an occurrence of "crisp and clear" syncronicities - oftentimes occurring when I read and watch films. As a result, I must take careful consideration to the types of movies, film or books I choose to read in the little/spare time I have when I'm not working or playing. </span></p>

<p class="p1"><span class="s1">As I have written about many times in my blogs and memoirs in progress…life for me since my spiritual awakening has seemed to be an occurrence of "crisp and clear" syncronicities - oftentimes occurring when I read and watch films.

<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">During my trip to Scandinavia last month, I was lead to buy some enjoyment reading for the trip .. and was immediately drawn to the first book I picked up in an independent book store "Books and Books" in Miami. The book is called "the Circle"...and as you can see - <a href="http://api.ning.com:80/files/U-QNuL7WAxnUPSRNSDh4QRxtaF5IGoo1hppSYJFvmG*pHmlbBauevzwNUXFLMdbgv5lSqzFu9K*x-ncJiPmDz7xbra6x*2OJ/ScreenShot20150814at4.22.12PM.png" target="_self">Screen%20Shot%202015-08-14%20at%204.22.12%20PM.png</a> its a bright day glow orange cover and was published in 2013 by a very gifted and insightful writer named Dave Eggers. Of course, immediately the syncronicities started happening from the moment I started reading the book just before the plane touched down. For starters, I flew Delta Airlines (the Triangle - and coincidently the airlines my old boyfriend flew for before his brain aneurysm) and also the Delta is the insignia on the time travelers of the future and the insignia on Star Trek.. and a symbol represented in our Greek past on this planet. The Delta Dental Plan was also the insurance that allowed my father for many years as a dentist to serve and take care of his patients.. many Delta insured Autoworkers.</span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Upon arriving in Copenhagen, my accommodations were arranged for me at the Square hotel so you could say.. I was tuned into these signs and had a "Sacred Geometry" trip going on reading the Circle, staying at the Square Hotel in Copenhagen and flying the Delta (the Triangle)! Everyone around me had the same bright day glow orange colors on identical to the book cover and to me. so it was all synchronized. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Through site-seeing and traveling for business and pleasure - I was unable to complete the book until today yet like all the other books I picked up to read since my awakening..this book has "real life" syncronicity" every step of the way.. and was chillingly "creepy" and prophetic. Again.. as a light worker - Im conscious to be very careful of what I take in to read/view given that I see and feel things most don't catch on this earth walk. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">As some of you know - my cousin CHAR is a world reknown psychic who lived in Holland for many years and I called her up yesterday to congratulate her on a new online show she recently launched. We hadn't spoken in a few years but I wanted to reach out to tell her this and how especially excited I was that her show featured my cousin Alicia (her sister), who was instrumental in mentoring me as a teacher, educator and gifted pioneer PHD Psychologist specializing in Past Life Regression. Char suggested I watch more of her Char episodes and I promised her I would when I had time before we hung up from our brief conversation. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">So during last night's unrelenting rains and thunderstorms I watched her video "TRUTH BE TOLD" filmed at Gower Studios in Los Angeles. During her show, Char discussed the word MOXY - as my good friends know - MOXYGIRL or MOXYGURLL as I spell it - is my personal email for the last 20 years and how I communicate with Char and other close friends and family. During this segment she discussed her views on Karma and asked Tony and Eddie, her co-hosts jokingly if they would wear her shirt 'What's your "CHARMA." with her name on it if she printed them up. Tired and not one for watching much TV, I went back to my book "the Circle".. and next, I turned to page 400 of THE CIRCLE - and as you can see.. here they talk about "Demoxy… a world of ONE online Democracy and an employee at the circle named SHARMA - yes !. SHARMA! <a href="http://api.ning.com:80/files/U-QNuL7WAxkyTyNpNigt-K2*abkfBAFPE1xYfENAnWEB4UGViiHBLO3Pp89Fx*zdYX7rFl*s7fgp4kBo2e8zsQpfYAZxdLTP/PHOTOOFBOOKPAGE.pdf" target="_self">PHOTOOFBOOKPAGE.pdf</a> and <a href="http://api.ning.com:80/files/U-QNuL7WAxmVbrLh5Ea6rE7Art9w4*zrGINeLphqdZXQ2X0v6lmQ0H7uKVJeievg48n1y2y0UtscolxGln9tx-*11pfQarJr/FULLBOOKPAGE.png" target="_self">FULLBOOKPAGE.png</a></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Welcome to my weird world! happens all the time - yet now you understand my natural tuning vibration to syncronistic experiences.. yet unlike the main character Mae in the book "The Circle", reading this book and having such strong syncronicity seeing and feeling things that most people "miss" or gloss over in our world made me more compelled than ever to write and educate people on the dangers of whats coming if they don't stop becoming so digitalized and "sucked into feeling an artificial sense of belonging via social media along with more invasions to our privacy like the characters in this book. Today, especially in parts of the United States - I've noticed some large cities and rural places where many people are just not socially or physically present anymore. All you have to do is see a movie from fifteen years ago and you will see how much more social people used to be and how much our world has changed. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">MORE ABOUT THE CIRCLE… </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">The premise of the book is about a young group of 30 somethings that work for a fictitious social media company in California that want to make the world transparent through people seeing and deciding everything together through live social media. They use social media to "like" or "frown" on opinions (much like Facebook/twitter and instagram does today) and wire everything that is occurring around the world in live real time. Those who chose to "live off the grid" are ostracized by society or driven to their deaths. Real life tools we have today.. like Facebook, Google and Ancestry.com - on steroids are also new features and software programs that the "Circlers" as they are called: introduce, test and roll out in the book showing painful transparencies for the main characters when dirt is scooped.. The central characters privacy is removed - showcasing their every move and dirt and the most personal private moments in their lineage through these tools, causing a breach in relationships and employees sacrificing their "Circle" life over their families for the rush they feel from online fame.. worse than any celebrity! and their desire to be in the limelight. New ways/programs are invented and encouraged every day to take away individuality and freedoms. This fictitious book is not too far fetched from where we are heading when you see whats online today.. and is why I encourage people to be more offline than online and be conscious of keeping things they value sacred and keeping themselves "real". Its great to be open and be yourself - yet not everything needs to be shared They should also respect and allow people that don't want to be "on the grid" - their privacy and ability to live out their lives out of the limelight if they want to. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">As creepy and real as this book is.. I encourage people to read it - as many people on FB that I know have a real problem with posting and checking news feeds too often.. including comparing themselves to others and/or presenting themselves and their families in "the best or worst scenarios" for validation of who they are….including me when frustration surfaces in my human state - as I'm here to learn like anyone else.. there is a real feeling that the posting process is an addiction to heal and to resolve the loneliness, isolation and "artificial" validation many people feel they need compared to twenty years ago when times were more social ... especially us Americans who are the most tuned into the reality/”selfie” internet world these days - and something that other parts of the world luckily don't really "envy or emulate" except for maybe Londoners.. there are still many parts of Europe who refuse to be that transparent. Let's hope it stays that way! When traveling to other places outside the US the past several years, I noticed that many countries are socially more present and off their phones in grocery stores, retail shops and social places - unlike America and places like Miami where much of the social etiquette is "out the window." With phone in hand, walking, working, riding the elevator or standing in front of you - people just don't care if they are being rude or loud or tuned out… and many young people I meet - want to be famous or well known and take selfies of themselves 24/7 yet can't type a simple " "How are you? “ or call to say “Hi, What's new?".. or engage in first understanding a situation before they rush to a solution or response. Why not be reactionary or "self absorbed" when mom or dad is that way and the only news stories online making major news these days is Kim Kardashian's selfies or but or her sisters lips injected looking overly sexy or cameras catching Ariana Grande being Anti-American and tampering with food licking doughnuts with her boyfriend? .. along with interviewers/reporters following along with these brainless stories to keep their jobs and/or shaming them for their acts caught on camera when big brother is watching.. Whether we want it or not... this is the news and our reality today. Not what is newsworthy and not what we want to create in our world and not what is important! No wonder the Orlando newsman walked off the air last week sighing after he was asked to deliver another mindless bubblegum report on the Kardashians on live news!. With stories like these and the transparencies social media and cameras are revealing - the darkside of the “Circle” is not that far removed from our present real lives these days. As a global society - we really do have our work cut out for us to monitor and be conscious of what we are creating in our world - especially in the US. For example, digital phones approved at the US middle school level this past year - increasingly challenged us as educators to keep the children attentive during our Pals visits. Keeping them focused, present and engaged on the white board shouldn't take 6-7 educators to hold down the fort and keep children focused - but it did.</span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">If your reading this.. let's help to change the perception/values of children that don't have guidance for what is important and help to improve the situation by being the right role models. More educated heartfelt newsworthy stories in our world and less time online. Affections and actions toward loved ones that are "not for show" on social media would be a great start. As the best moments of love and compassion towards others is oftentimes when no one sees you and you dont need the recognition. </span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">What is life? is being acknowledged/remembered for who you are and for your contributions what we are all here striving for???? I don't think so. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Enjoying life and loving those who matter most and who are present in our lives and who we agreed to be with in this lifetime. To me.. thats what life is about and for many its fortunate that they are waking up to this realization too. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Sometimes your passions change or expand or those in your story change..yet its all by focusing on what really matters most in the present that counts. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">By identifying what you came here for and who you are in the present.. that allows you to be resilient, strong and to co-create/evolve to make your story fit the person you are today and that person you are moving towards becoming in the future. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Even if you have been through hell and suffered greatly.. that is only your story if you keep telling it. Survivors and thrivers rebuild and move on. They live for the present and for the future. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">What I love about meditation and certain forms of yoga is that it teaches the mindful practice of stillness and genuine listening.. and taking a vested interest in others.. to be present for them, to help them, to love them and to be of service to them (when asked or needed) and to feel comfortable openly confiding/talking with them about our lives, hopes, dreams, concerns. That is an exchange in balance and yes - UNCONDITIONAL LOVE .. that is what it is all about. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">When I started Pals Around the World Books and Program, it was to help give all students access to education about other cultures and the humanitarian component of taking care of the earth and each other. Today, Pals represents the positive aspects of our world as a CIRCLE… In contrast, to this book "THE CIRCLE"by Dave Eggers representing the dark side. the duality that we must rise above is always there in everything.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">THE PALS AROUND THE WORLD message - the good points of a circle.. peace, love, unity, tolerance and caring about our world remains the same.. and by reading in a circle it is also real life social interaction - the heartfelt exchange of being present for others and joining together as one with an open exchange of communication of ideas, reading and education and improving ways through education of taking care of our earth and each other. Our pioneer Pals Ambassadors from my former career as a celebrity reporter are wonderful and we value them for launching us just as much as we value those who are not Celebrities - as every Pals Ambassador is a "STAR IN OUR EYES" - they all have something equally meaningful to offer thru their example. .. they give their time generously only to make a difference in the lives of children. They read and share their career, their story and life lessons with our students in the schools and are positive role models. These are people who have integrity, interesting careers, cultural backgrounds and heart. They are not preoccupied with being famous and taking selfies 24/7 or showing the world that they live "the life." They are being real and authentic beings..showing who they are….from playing their music, to planting flowers to developing cures for cancer or trip to space... showing their bravery. Or sometimes they are making us laugh or showing their passionate interest in their careers/life purpose and make reading fun with our 10 minute reading comprehension triva game with our PALS AROUND THE WORLD books. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><b>Since EVERYONE is an individual star in their own right - and has that special something.. being famous, being seen, being acknowledged on the internet and being remembered for having lots of likes is NOT what this world is about. It is especially important for our kids growing up to hear and take in this message. If only the MEDIA would help us with this process and those reading this who are posting/sharing too much and not living a life in balance. </b></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"> I was reminded a few weeks ago of what’s important when a long time friend's father passed away a few days before his birthday. This was a man who loved and cared for his brood of kids and who was a self-made man with a laundry list of degrees, accomplishments and accolades in his lifetime - yet his obituary simply read that "he was loved by his family." As yes, they knew they didn't need to list these amazing things he did because it wasn't what was important. to him or to them. That is not what mattered.. They simply wanted those who knew him to know how much they loved their dad and how much he loved them.</span></p>
<p class="p2"></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Reading “the Circle” and what the digital media age does to artificially support/inspire, separate/isolate and divide us from REAL communication - and each other is a real wakeup call for people to be disciplined.. to lead their lives offline and value what is really important.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Though I sparingly watch tv, a new show in NYC called "Difficult people" popped on my screen the other day and I had to turn it off. The actors were so dysfunctional with their tweets and ADHD from living a wired life of tweets online 24/7- that it was incomprehensively boring and a sad take on the state of our society today and simply NOT FUNNY!</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Another example of people and their use of social media and how the humor gets lost with this "dulled down" online life. I know its been a big complaint of mine for quite some time, yet it continues to get worse., therefore I chose to write about it in the hopes of preventing an even more dysfunctional society than we already seem to have these days and to help consciously raise awareness to those who don't realize they have an online problem. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">This book "THE CIRCLE" by Dave Eggers depicts the duality of allowing a circle of EVERYONE access to everything via social medial tools similar to Facebook.. it creates this Totalitarian world where cameras are on people at all times (even when they think they are not watching), where people and children are chipped (like the Leslie Jacobs who has my same name/different spelling who was chipped in real life with her family in Florida on Good Morning America years ago like many of us saw at the end of the movie documentary ZeitGeist. This Leslie may not be me, spells Leslye differently, is not related to me and looks nothing like me - yet the message in this film was a warning. This book too, shows you the chillingly prophetic scary side of our world if we continue down this path.. if this was to happen than no one would have any privacy for their thoughts or individuality anymore with all government decisions being funneled though a one world government of "mob rule" mass decisions made in "reel time" likes (smiley faces) and frowns by millions of viewers - and anyone who doesn't succumb to this unhealthy online mob rule of the digital/camera world is made an outcast or driven to their deaths and/or inability to survive off the grid. Yes indeed this is only a ficticious novel, yet many parallels in this book are already here. “Hello ..anyone read 1984? also prophetic about big brother watching. The dark side of the digital world, yet it is what we faced millions of years ago when Atlantis sank and our society became divided between those two worlds.. those who were too into materialistic greed and the IT/digital world and those connected to their hearts and living a life in balance with the laws of respecting nature and staying connected to each other. Since history has a way of sometimes repeating itself - it is more important than ever for people to be conscious of living their life in balance and connected to their hearts and others in their life OFF the internet/grid. to face this repeat history that’s surfacing is really a test for humanity to do it “differently” this time around.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">By opening your heart and connecting to the simple things in life and nature..you will see and feel the difference between these two worlds and make the right choices for yourself and for your family. We are on the precipice of change. What way will you go?</span></p>Online School in the Art of Astrology by Cal Garrison Celebration Saletag:www.worldviewzmedia.net,2015-05-10:2098065:BlogPost:969452015-05-10T07:30:00.000ZRobert Dakotahttp://www.worldviewzmedia.net/profile/RobertDakota

<p><br/> We have just completed 36 hours of Lectures on Cal's Wisdom and Knowledge of Astrology Reading. For me as a filmmaker I am very proud that we have completed this milestone. What prompted me to propose this project to Cal in the first place is not only that Cal is a close friend of mine, but that she has a body of knowledge; wisdom if you will, that I feel should be archived and shared with the next generation. Fortunately for me Cal agreed!<br/> <br/> I have had the luxury of hanging out with Cal as well as being in the council of Cal since about 2009 even though I have known her since 05'. She has compassionately guided me through some very, very tough times. It was her wisdom on many occasions (along with a host of other sisters) that assisted me in overcoming severe emotional blocks that I had been suffering from, related to past traumas that were replicating themselves in my "then present reality". All the Opportunity that I had to be the beneficiary of her wisdom made me feel that many people could benefit from Cal if they only knew about her.<br/> <br/> This when I reflect back and remember how we got this project started for Cal, was one of the main impetus' to bring her work forward and out into the world. Her wisdom of Metaphysics, Astrology, Ancient Wisdom, Celtic Knowledge, The Cycles of the Seasons, and much more because I'm learning all the time about the depth of Cal's profound understandings of the Macro to the Micro of Being Human and the effects that affect us! I had assumed naively that we would have approximately 100-200 students per Quarter. Well that hasn't happened yet but we made it through the first year by Faith, Love, on a Wing and a Prayer, in spit of the huge challenges. That means we now have the luxury of reducing the cost for the first year of Real Time Astrology Online Courses because we completed the first year of archiving. The only drawl back is that Real Time Students in real time have access to ask Cal questions during the course. Even though I have not been that interested in Astrology and have no previous academic understanding, I learned a great deal about our cosmos and the effect it has on us. From the Macro to the Micro! So my opinion is that her courses are valuable to Everyone, if not for becoming a reader but at least being able to read your own situation!<br/> <br/> Thank you for your indulgence in this long message, it is my inspiration to share Cal with as many people as possible, because I know they will benefit from her teachings!<br/> Please share with others who you feel would appreciate her offerings.<br/> <br/> Thank you for Your Time!<br/> Robert Dakota<br/> PS if anyone has any suggestions to offer on getting Cal's work out to those who would benefit from this offering please email me at sedonaconnections@gmail.com</p>This happy ordertag:www.worldviewzmedia.net,2015-03-13:2098065:BlogPost:964582015-03-13T22:57:10.000ZSareena Sandhuhttp://www.worldviewzmedia.net/profile/Sareena

Chaos within the Order<br />

As I sit quietly with my cards, I feel the invisible writing of songs upon the air.<br />
This hallowed ground- this lucky space- has me jumping up and down.<br />
And then I realize that this is where I am meant to be.<br />
All my life seemed a struggle until I took the plunge.<br />
<br />
I have restored years of my life. I have restored my future self.<br />
The world is anew with magick upon the mirror. And I see it now.

<p><strong>On the first day of the Irish spring, Brigit's Day, Imbolc, february 1st, everything changed. The next weekend I attended a four day <strong>sound therapy </strong>workshop. The evening before the workshop began I arrived at the hotel in Dublin,got my things settled in my room and went to meet the instructors who were setting up the instruments in workshop room. I had fallen the previous weekend at a ceremony for the Mother Source of the Shannon River and now I limped with the aid of a crutch. I made my entrance into the room with a halting gait and an embarrassed smile. Two people were there. A tall, thin, white man with a curly head of hair and an large black woman. When I entered and introduced myself, the woman began to laugh, a welcoming, warm laugh,the kind you'd greet a long absent friend with. The man's name was Tony and he was the director of the institute. The woman's name was Cathy but her spirit name was Mamma Shake and this was the name Tony introduced her as. She one the facilitator and held the space while Tony did the majority of the teaching. I explained how I came by the injury. Mamma Shake asked if she could come to room later and give the troubled knee a massage. Of course I agreed. Two hours laters she knocked on my door. Again she laughed the laughter of an old friend while she pointed out that the books that I had brought along with me were the very books that she was told she didn't have to bring from her library for they would already be here. She massaged my right knee with Moon Oil that she purchased in Glastonbury. As she rubbed my leg her face and breathing change and she began to channel. A very deep voice erupted from her, two octaves lower than her own voice. The voice said that I had much grief but that my time had come. He said throat was blocked but soon it would be unblocked. That much work would be done with me. Afterwards Cathy said very quickly that we should go to the workshop room that she had permission to be there and that I should be taken to the gongs right away. This weekend's work consisted of an introduction the metal singing bowls and to the gong. Neither of these instruments were familiar to me. She spoke so lovingly of the gongs, like it was a living thing, a breathing organism, a lover and sacred friend. So I followed Cathy down to the darkened room. We found the lights and she rearranged a most beautiful gong away from the wall and placed a chair with its back towards the instrument. she told me to sit in it. After a moment of silence she played the gong. I have never felt such a thing before. A tidal wave of sound, blossoming, threatening, releasing all over me. It sent me deep into my heart through the abyss, further away than I had before or remembered being where then I found myself at the cross roads. I had been here before, last year in fact. And two years previous. The mad thing about these roads is that it has such a familiarity to it that am I incredibly happy and pleased to be there. I realise that I am in another time. The more that I am able to find myself there, the less jarring it is to my consciousness and the longer I can stay present. To my right hand side I saw myself. Another me. And as the gong shimmered through every fiber of my plasma I saw myself reach out to me. We linked, hand to elbow and with a twirl we swung ourselves around. The gong faded, the way a summer sunset fades, with the light lingering in places, gold dust thickening, dramatic shadows falling. Everything changed. Everything Changed.</strong></p>Winter Solstice 2014tag:www.worldviewzmedia.net,2014-12-20:2098065:BlogPost:958732014-12-20T17:28:23.000ZRobert Dakotahttp://www.worldviewzmedia.net/profile/RobertDakota

<p>This week's Horoscopes are coming out under the light of a Libra Moon, with a pile of transits that make me feel like everything will be just fine if we keep the lines of communication open and make sure we have everyone's need for 'space', as well as their best interests in mind. The full import of what this requires of us is something all of us have to come to terms with as we move deeper into the reality of living in the new paradigm. A Square from Juno to Pallas could see us using every trick in the book to make our needs superior to everyone else's, just to keep people near us, or to preserve a false sense of security. It's never wise to impose our Will on life, or others, unless it's a matter of life or death. I could be all wrong about that but, concocting ploys to force anything into being is counterproductive whenever it is not in everyone's highest good. Pay close attention to the ways in which your abandonment issues keep you and everyone around you from getting real enough to be transparent about what motivates your behavior and your choices. Let your intentions allow you to remain in the moment, know that authenticity is what counts in every situation, and be open enough to let your relationships evolve according to truthful patterns instead of thinking that love and fulfillment have anything to do with Need or Use. If you can keep all of that present and accounted for, the upcoming New Moon Eclipse will arrive with a fresh start and a chance to redefine everything about your life, and the way you conduct your relationships with the people who inhabit it. Give yourself a minute to think about what that might mean, and enjoy this week's 'scopes!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Horoscopes</p>
<p>ARIES: March 21 – April 20</p>
<p>You are on a bit of a roll. It's got you wondering what it might take to keep it going. For many of you, the issue of keeping it up has everything to do with where your attitude goes from moment to moment. This isn't news to you, but keeping your head in the right place would be easier if there wasn't so much to make you wonder where you will be if and when something shows up to bust this up. Cross that bridge when you come to it. For now, the stars are lined up to make all of your endeavors a perfect reflection of the extent to which you've mastered your hardest lessons.</p>
<p>TAURUS: April 21 – May 20</p>
<p>The decision to go for it has come with a whole new raft of problems. You are now in the place that we all wind up going to whenever things begin to expand. If others have a problem with it they are keeping quiet. When they decide to speak up, some will say you've bitten off more than you can chew; but none of them can see around the corner. And what they don't know is that your more recent choices will wind up standing them in good stead sooner than either of you might think. Give yourself time to feel your way as you test the waters in a new area of your life.</p>
<p>GEMINI: May 21 – June 20</p>
<p>Everything will work out better, now that you've figured out where the primary issue was bringing you down. With a little time to take what has gotten out of control to a place that allows you to see what messed it up, you stand a good chance of recouping your losses and turning this around. Thank God you're good in the trenches and clueless about the deeper stuff. Anyone who tried to analyze ANY of the changes that have been whacking you of late would be faced with a mountain of confusion that wouldn't add up. Best of luck restoring your life to a state of balance.</p>
<p>CANCER: June 21 – July 20</p>
<p>It comes down to wondering if you'll be able to make it without something or someone. Maybe that's all we ever have to look at. In the end it's essential to know that nothing outside of yourself is lasting or permanent. Love may be the only thing that survives death but, even it comes and goes. I don't know how to tell you what to do because I don't have the right. I'm just here to remind you that no matter what your choices include, you will be better off if you have the courage to tell the truth and remain in alignment with what is speaking to you from within.</p>
<p>LEO: July 21 – August 20</p>
<p>Things are ready to turn a corner. Many of you are in the middle of a huge transformation that can't be easily categorized. At this point you could be flying with an enlightened approach to everything, or using every excuse in the book to explain away the fact that nothing appears to be working. In some cases these opposite points of view keep you going up and down from day to day. You're no dummy. In the midst of whatever needs to happen to get you to the next stop, you need to be rearranging not just the scenery, but the way you think about life in general.</p>
<p>VIRGO: August 21 – September 20</p>
<p>You are going through the motions. The sense of being missing in action when it comes to your own life could ring a bell for a lot of you. When things lose their meaning it helps to review our reasons for attaching so much importance to whatever has outlived its purpose. You don't need to know what's going on as much as you need to relax and take a good long look at where you'd like to see yourself. It could be anywhere but here. Keep in mind that you are not tied to this spot - but if you decide to stick around you need to find another reason to live or you'll go nuts.</p>
<p>LIBRA: September 21 – October 20</p>
<p>You have it all figured out. If everything goes off without a hitch you will have plenty of justification for doing things your way. If anyone happens to be paying attention they are willing to trust you to do the right thing and they love you enough to let you learn from your mistakes if that's what this turns out to be. It's hard to say how the story will unfold because you have so many variables challenging the sense that you actually have to stay on top of all of this. Whatever doesn't kill us makes us stronger. This is huge; and 'Yes' - it's your job to handle it.</p>
<p>SCORPIO: October 21 – November 20</p>
<p>The need to stay on top of things is about to be replaced with a desire to go with the flow. Your life now depends on being able to let it be. For far too long the pressure to perform has created a robotic atmosphere that will continue to prevent you from living; but only if you let it. There's plenty of room and time for play. However you define it the need for love is about to be met with an even greater need to see your life evolve beyond your commitment to work. That's right folks. It could very well be time to look at love and what it means to you once again; are you up for it?</p>
<p>SAGITTARIUS: November 21 – December 20</p>
<p>I could scold you for going off half cocked, but you would have a fleet of excuses for everything that you've said and/or done, and I am pretty sure you feel totally justified about all of it. One of your strong suits is your willingness to be there when it's time to stand up for what's right. Recent alterations in the way you've decided to handle things have shown you how much better life goes when you lose the need to get righteous. As the next few weeks unfold your ability to remain detached about things that rub you the wrong way will enable you to turn this situation around.</p>
<p>CAPRICORN: December 21 - January 20</p>
<p>Before you know it the efforts of the last nine months will give birth to the opportunity of a life time. This could come in the form of something that turns you into a mover and a shaker, but it could just as easily show up as a chance to finally get off the boat. Either way, the only deterrent to your success is the fear that you don't deserve what's coming to you. The next time you start to wonder whether or not your hard work has been in vain, ask yourself what makes you think you haven't done everything in your power to save the day and keep this situation from falling apart.</p>
<p>AQUARIUS: January 21 – February 20</p>
<p>You can keep asking the same old questions but you're not going to get the answers you seek from those whose intentions are cloaked, or those who have no way to address the truth without coming unglued. In many ways you would be better off leaving well enough alone. This is one of those times when what's eating away at you has too much to do with what others refuse to do for you to be asking them why. It's usually wise in situations like this to let time cool things off and hold your conversations to occasions when you are willing to enter them with no axe to grind.</p>
<p>PISCES: February 21 – March 20</p>
<p>You can't be sure where others are coming from. Going by their words won't give you much to go on. They don't have a clue. In spite of who they claim to be, you're dealing with people who can't be honest with themselves, let alone know how to tell you the truth. Give me a break. In and around all of this their primary issues are doing the Tango with yours and neither one of you understands that it's less about dancing than it is about getting real enough to see that you can't pretend to be plumbing the depths of either truth or love with your old paradigm baggage in tow.</p>

<p>There isn't much sense in posting about the Full Moon Eclipse on Wednesday Oct.8th cause there so much on the web about it...But it will happen and 6:25AM est,when major planets will also converge near the Sun&amp;Moon as this occurs either side and within only a few degrees of Washington DC. This indicates possibility of sometime within the next three months there is a good chance of changes in government policy resulting from public revolutionary actions. In the US that means protests with mass gatherings. This of course will effect all American, but the world too as their is no separation anymore. This is all part of the evolutionary enlightenment process which was predicted by the Shift in Consciousness back in 12/2012 with the Mayan Calendar. That's right those desiring to keep the masses in Fear heavily promote that as being the End Times....Just as I said back then it was just another twist by those who want control over the masses, because the calendar as did all other perdictions from ancients indicated it was only the End of Time as We Know It or how we project time into our reality.....The changes which have occurred in our world governments and social attitudes are a result of a Consciousness Shift that is changing how we inner-act with life.... it's literally changing our whole relationship to time by teaching us past and future are only thought held in our mind and memory, and the only true reality is the NOW MOMENT of PRESENT..........this is the New Earth vibration we've spiraled into and 2012 cosmic energy created these new possibilities for our Solar System as it spirals the universe.<br/><br/>This Blood Moon Eclipse (gets it's name from how light rays fall on these cosmic bodies) and like all eclipse energy it carries possibility for endings that will created new beginnings. Like all eclipse's it will also have a greater effect on those who have planets connected in their natal chart or live where it's energy crosses. There are a total of four Blood Moon Eclipses, this is the second, two more in 2015, all of which by possition to other planets are creating energy for humanity to release attachment to the physical and human ego mindset. This is so we can come to develop a sense of the Oneness in all things and our inner-connectedness to all of creation. At this time Mercury has gone Rx and the Sabian symbol for Mercury going retrograde at 3* Scorpio is a house-raising party in a small village enlisting the neighbors’ cooperation. The community gets together to build a house for those in need for the greater good of all. This added energy to help us move into the Unity Consciousness of Oneness as we cooperate with others to build something strong and permanent—perhaps a new mental paradigm for our future as a community or even a more personal level acting for the Greater Good of the All. So enjoy the transforming beauty of this powerful Full Moon Eclipse...</p>REFLECTING ON CHILDHOOD WOUNDS FROM A HEALED PERSPECTIVE AND THE BENEFITS OF FAMILY CONSTELLATION THERAPY WITH MY CLIENTStag:www.worldviewzmedia.net,2014-09-10:2098065:BlogPost:945082014-09-10T00:00:00.000ZLeslye Jacobshttp://www.worldviewzmedia.net/profile/LeslyeJacobs
<p>For me personally I will start by reflecting on some early childhood experiences with own mother and father growing up from an early age to adulthood and how I can look back now through loving eyes and forgiveness from the energy healing/therapy I now work on individually with my clients. </p>

<p>For me personally I will start by reflecting on some early childhood experiences with own mother and father growing up from an early age to adulthood and how I can look back now through loving eyes and forgiveness from the energy healing/therapy I now work on individually with my clients. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Though I was never close to my mother, as I grew up, it was my grandparents who filled in the gaps in many ways for the lack of parenting and focus my parents were not capable of giving. I am so thankful every day for the active role my grandparents played in my life! For without them, I wouldn't know the strength and love I know and feel in my heart today. </p>
<p></p>
<p>My parents did the best they could with their limitations and for that I am truly grateful. They did want to have fun and we enjoyed summers boating and cruising the great lakes.. And my mother always had a home cooked dinner ready on the stove every night. That type of routine and stability I feel fortunate having in addition to giving me a wonderful education and travel experiences. Despite material advantages and attractive parents that looked good from the outside - things were not always wonderful on the inside. My father worked all the time and did the best he could, but was not attentive at all. After work, he was really too tired and too much into his own hobbies to be bothered. Weekends and days off were always about him and his hobbies: boats, cars and watching sports. He didn't really care to be responsible emotionally as a parent and couldn't be bothered spending time getting to know what we were about as individuals - typical of that generation!. Once my father was home from work, dinner always took place with the TV blasting and no interruptions or we were yelled at. But on the flip side, he loved animals, and found my rescue cat Gates, and had an ability to make us laugh, was a good provider, and was quite the child himself! </p>
<p>My mother too, had her good and bad points. She would help with homework and cook and was always a reliable ride to and from school.. But somehow she got lost in this process.. In addition to doing her mothering duties, she was often, depressed, very self absorbed and narcissistic at times and also hot tempered and dominant - which made for many household fights between my parents growing up. This was very unsettling at times, but something I learned to "tune out" growing up with their drama fueled fights. While my father was off working, everything in our house revolved around my mother and her needs. They were also about my brother and his tennis.. as he was treated like "JC walking on water" as the only son. Shopping days with my older sisters and mom were never a fun experience either!.. For starters it was always about my sisters - and I was always punished, yelled at, ignored or "ganged up on" so i eventually stopped going with "the girls." When my mom did try to take me on outings alone - it always ended up being about her and looking for her needs. Though having four kids is a large responsibility, my mother never had to work full time and minor events like having the flu and needing to go home from school would make her irrate! Sometimes her "masochistic side would show up - as I will never forget coming home on my sixth birthday and asking "Where's my birthday cake? "Where's my presents?" and having my mom pretend that they forgot until I cried and cried, while she shrugged her shoulders as I became more and more upset. . A joke.. yet a cruel one that was carried way too far. When she suggested i go into the garage to find my father, he was there assembling a "big wheel" for me. It had all been one big joke, but one that would be so gut wrenching and emotionally/psychologically upsetting that I still remember it to this day. While i forgive her, its just one of too many examples of what i had endured. </p>
<p></p>
<p>As I got older, I learned not to rely on my mother for anything I needed. I learned from my friends and their moms about puberty, fashion and things that my mother never prepared me for in life. My own friends were often not allowed to come over, yet when I did have the occasional friend visit, they were often criticized and put down immediately after they left. </p>
<p>Shopping excursions too, were always a battle of wills - as my mother would not give me the freedom to express my tastes, my own style, likes, etc. That changed with my independence at 11-12 years old. I started singing and bought my own clothes and did what I liked on my own. I also no longer went to lunch or shopping with my mom, aunts sisters etc, on Thursdays, my grandmothers's only day off from work, as I would rather spend it hanging out with my grandfather - instead of with the ladies of the family who took in two hour lunches gossiping and talking about people I didn't know. As the youngest, this bored and agitated me and it was not uncommon to find me behaving in mischievous ways, climbing under the dining table or all over a restaurant until my grandfather was called by phone to come rescue me - as this bad behavior was my exit out of there! That is one of my earliest memories of "lunching with the ladies" at 6 years of age. Today as a grown woman, I enjoy my ladies luncheons with my good girl friends - but the conversation is quite more loving and interesting than my childhood experiences. </p>
<p></p>
<p> Though I sometimes enjoyed hearing my aunt tell her happy stories/memories of ancestors long ago at the cottage - that was about the extent of the enjoyment felt from these luncheons every Thursday in my childhood. All I remember was feeling very "icky" around these female members of my family, as they had NO awareness or consciousness of the toxicity of their discussions taking place. They also didn't care how lacking it was in love, compassion or kindness or just how boring it was to talk about others! . However, my grandfather would come to my rescue and remove me from this toxic bunch. Though my grandma could be catty too.. she really was too busy working to get "caught up" in superficial dramas or talking much about others and perhaps wasn't aware that this behavior in her only came out at these luncheons. When it was just the two of us, my grandmother never talked this way. As my grandmother had a business to run and no time for idle chit-chat. With so much work responsibilities, she didn't have the time or interest to get caught up in anyone else's business nor did she care what others did in their personal lives. She was concerned with her own "movie". Something that I loved about her. She was down to earth and real! She taught me that if you can count your good friends on one hand - you are doing fine as life is not a popularity contest and you can't possibly be "best friends" with so many people. She found people too caught up in other people's movies to be insecure and she always sensed when people were attracting the wrong people in their lives superficially by not having a filter or good sense of judgement. Something I feel I inherited from her. At an early age, I knew my grandma was my hero and that I wanted to be more like her in this way!</p>
<p>Looking back when I was younger, I was somewhat aware of people's energy, but Im even more aware today. That can apply to many of us with the changes in consciousness. In my younger years i didn't always attracted people with good energy, but those that didn't have my best interests at heart were weeded out pretty quickly. as I aged, I learned, and I am so thankful for my spiritual growth to recognize who is worthy of being a friend.</p>
<p>As I got older and became more "in-tune", the friction with my mother became more and more evident too, especially the more I grew up and gained my independence. Yet as I tell my clients, we all pick our parents and they pick us for symbiotic learning and spiritual growth. In my late 20s, as I finished school and entered Corporate America, everything in my life that brought me joy from a new job to a romantic interest.. made my mother very angry and uncomfortable. I remember her once telling my boyfriend in my early 30s, "My daughter is always happy" - but she said it with such anger and annoyance. It was long before i realized years later after therapy and living away just how messed up my mother was and just how deep in her depression she was that she could not not be happy for me or for other people.</p>
<p>My initial reaction to her was: "No one is always happy, not even me. Why would you say that? I have my ups and downs just like everyone else" but again.. maybe because i didn't show it or have deep depression like she did in my early 30s? Something I am grateful for not having (even working through it when I did briefly have it years later), but obviously my mother's depression made her angry when others, particularly when others "appeared" to be happy - and it was a learning lesson to ensure I work on myself and my genetic DNA to ensure I didn't ever have it. </p>
<p></p>
<p>Though I didn't want to believe my mom was the way she was.. over the years I learned how to guard my thoughts, my plans and protect myself - as other peoples thoughts/disturbances can carry energy.</p>
<p>Yes, someone CAN harm your path if you are "unaware of it, and don't know how to lovingly heal and protect yourself. Prayers and putting yourself in white light is all that is needed and connecting to your heart chakra. </p>
<p>Sending energy back to someone that you feel may be harming you or always fearing someone is harming you is "fear based" thinking 5th plane thinking.. </p>
<p>With my clients I help them to achieve what they need to do via meditation to "recreate" healing/loving feelings by healing the root cause of the shock or trauma to feel safe, protected and loved at all times. We also help them remove the roots of any "fear based" thinking if they constantly feel harmed or abused to newly recreate feelings of love and healing. Remember, no matter how abusive someone is - you can't let it taint you, your heart or your outlook on life and this can be healed! </p>
<p></p>
<p>Circumstances like toxic relationships between different souls are pre-planned in the Life between Life process before you incarnate. And yes, some people are "agasp" that one's own parent or a spouse can be abusive, but when you understand reincarnation and the context of people's past actions and the context of how they know you and other individuals, it makes sense that we are all at different learning levels and experiences.. and some people have to keep repeating lessons. </p>
<p>For me this lifetime, I had to learn to stand up for myself and call people out on their toxicity or "bad behavior to make it stop. This also included boundary setting until they could learn how to treat me right without being abusive. </p>
<p>With my own personal healing, this involved separating from my mother who I felt immediate occurrences with after talking or sharing good news with her, until I finally stood up to her and had a voice through healing to defend myself spiritually and vocally with my own healing work.. Something I would never do when i was younger.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Words hurt, and I will never forget when I received my first big International consulting job</p>
<p>with Andersen Consulting (today Accenture). I came home and the first person I told was my mother</p>
<p>who I asked to call my grandparents to come over for a celebration. This was a "big deal" for me</p>
<p>as my grandmother Rose was my role model in the business world. She was not only the matriarch</p>
<p>of our family, she was also a role model for the women's lib movement in the 50s way ahead of the actual movement! As she was one of the very first business women in Detroit and one of the first women to drive a car, marry a younger man (my grandfather) and to work and run her own business in an era where women didn't work outside the home. She was truly a woman ahead of her time! </p>
<p>My grandfather George too had influenced me greatly as he was a "big kid" who loved</p>
<p>to take me to my cousins ranch horseback riding (even when I was wearing a dress without the proper riding gear!) and to the Ice Capades or Apple Picking in September at Big Red with my other cousins and brother and sisters. He also was the first face I would see after school or after being away at summer camp and the one who arranged for me to have my drivers test taken in the middle of a snow storm near his office on my 16th birthday when every other business was closing! He was truly special and was all about love, kindness and happiness - especially with children! He filled in a lot of the gaps where my parents were not capable of parenting and made my childhood so very special! I loved him the most because he was too busy touching other people's lives in a positive way to be sitting around talking about other people or judging them. He was so happy and secure in himself and his spirituality that he didn't need it or want it. </p>
<p></p>
<p>Having Andersen Accounting for his taxes, a company he respected, my grandfather George was most proud of me and my new job! My grandmother Rose too was proud. Although she had already passed away years before, her presence was felt entirely around me the whole day up until the job offer. My mother upon hearing the news of my first big corporate job could barely say anything to me.. In fact, she acted withdrawn and depressed. A repeat pattern when I shared good news with her. </p>
<p>Despite her less than enthusiastic response.. I still had "no level of complete awareness" regarding my mother in my late 20s. As I ended the phone call with her, two minutes later the phone </p>
<p>rang. It was Andersen Consulting rescinding the job offer I had just signed and accepted after 3 interviews! Yes, energy travels fast.. and it took years to correlate.. but every time I told my mom good news.. she didn't like it and would have a "weird" depressing response and something would go wrong. My thought patterns were disbelief. "No! I am loved, and cherished.. This cannot be possible!" but with therapy and past life regressions and the life between lifetimes I had the maturity and spiritual knowledge to better understand her depression along with all the pieces I need of the context of her issues growing up unnurtured, feeling neglected with a working mother and why I agreed to be her child this lifetime, despite the hard knocks. </p>
<p>Though we all have different challenges with people in our soul groups, sometimes we help people just by being who we are and being true to what we are here for.. . and for me that is particularly true. </p>
<p>I will never forget that night with the job offer was taken away! I was so upset, but I used the power of prayer to pray about the job coming thru and called the Director of Human Resources pleading my case that perhaps they could make an exception (even though they overfilled their quota of hiring candidates), since I did technically sign all the paperwork for the job. Luckily, the Andersen Consulting Director of Change Management and HR Director called Headquarters and they were able to make the exception and "re-offer" me the job.. but it took several years later, until I finally learned from more experiences like this NOT to tell my mother ANY information.. The correlation between things going wrong after telling my mother were too "crisp and clear cut" to ignore.. and with time I grew wiser and learned to protected myself..</p>
<p></p>
<p>Next, when I worked on my first big job at Andersen, things were still not smooth sailing. I had to fight the verbal abuse of my parents telling me how I wasn't smart enough or good enough for the job because my sister didnt cut it in large corporate america. It was so toxic and abusive - and crumbled my self confidence. I remember leaving the restaurant where I had met them for dinner the first week on the job- because I didn't want them to taint my outlook or experience. Despite, chipping away at my confidence when I needed it most, I remember inviting my grandfather to lunch at the Ponchartrain Hotel (now the Crowne Plaza) in downtown Detroit next door to my office, so I could give him a grand tour of the Andersen Offices. This helped make up for these horrible experiences at home. It was so exciting to be able to treat my grandfather for a business lunch and say "thanks" for all he had done for me growing up and for all his help raising me and making me feel worthy and loved as a valuable person. </p>
<p>Moving out west to LA in 2005 and separating myself from my birth family gave me the independence and perspective to see things for what they were and grow tremendously in spirit. Prior to this, I didn't know any better that I was abused - as often victims of abuse don't realize it when they are "in it." I had many wonderful mentors and healers to light my path and to show me the truth and shadows in myself past and present.. including tapping into what I am here for this time around and awakened tremendous divinity and spiritual awareness the more I studied and healed others. Those on a spiritual path often do have an enlightenment that causes relations in your life to shift. By the time I launched Pals Around the World in 2009, my father, somewhat older and more dependent on my mother for his health needs became more abusive too.. as yes, my parents didn't like it - and because I wasn't my mother's favorite, my father told me candidly during my visit for some book readings in 2011 that " I'm not supposed to shine! " Yes he actually said these words to me.. As yes, luckily in the context of how I know my father (being his parent past life in the Lakota lifetime) I'm a strong enough individual to be my own cheerleader and tune it out - even today. If most people were put in my shoes, I am sure that they would not be able to overcome the abuse and achieve high self esteem or their own personal aspirations personally and professionally. Just like my paternal grandparents wouldn't have been able to "survive and thrive" being orphaned and lost as children - if they didn't have the "inner strength" to handle it. I feel much of my "inner strength," resolve and drive I inherited from them. </p>
<p></p>
<p>Given my strength of character and independence, I truly love myself today and I'm just as comfortable alone as I am in the company with those i love. I chose to be who I am- as we ALL choose our bodies, our paths, and our soul groups we reincarnate with to learn certain lessons. Believe me, this was a hard incarnation at times, but I'm glad I picked it to not only to help me grow in confidence and strength, but to also help the other souls overcome bullying and abusive behavior and master unconditional love and acceptance of other people. I work on the self-love and resilience every day to not let limited views taint my heart or outlook on life. I may have changed inside, but my family today is still the same. </p>
<p> I am so very thankful every day for the wonderful life I have lived so far, and for those friends, relatives and love interests who were there for me up until this point, guiding my path and supporting me. Without them, I would have never have had the strength at times or endurance to overcome the abuse and be who I am today. </p>
<p></p>
<p>Sometimes the abuse went beyond just achievements to attacking my physical appearance. I remember I felt so beautiful in this little black dress I wore for a family event I attended with my parents , my sister Lisbeth, her husband Mark (than her boyfriend at the time) along with my widowed grandfather George as my chaperon. My sister and mother started ganging up on me and in the heat of a fight right at the beginning of the event, my father chimed in to say: "You are ugly" followed by" "You will never be pretty like a Princess Diana." It was the meanest and cruelest thing a person could ever say to someone - especially, their own daughter when I felt my personal best and the argument had nothing to do with him. In fact, I have attached a picture of me in my 20s in this Little Black Dress I was wearing that night that I felt so very beautiful wearing. Again - as I started to cry, my grandfather George.. who was so loving and kind.. started to intervene and took me out into the hallway and started to cry with me.. He hated arguments or fighting of any kind and felt a sense of powerlessness over how I was being treated - but he knew my family and my father had crossed a line that was not right, but he felt powerless to intervene with the gloating and joy my mother, sister and her husband got out of "ganging up" on me. Past life reasons put this all into context, but really its not my issue. We cannot control others behavior no matter how bad they may behave. All we can control is our own response and not be a victim to take abuse. </p>
<p></p>
<p>I forgive my family and I don't dwell on it.. but I share some of the "worst" moments in this blog for my clients and for others reading this to grow and heal so that they too can look back at painful events like this in a healed way by getting the self-help and therapy they need. Whether a person feels like the bully or the victim, they still need healing and better understanding of why they are doing what they are doing. I write too for the protection of children in my family and children around the world who I do not want to experience the same sort of abuse. </p>
<p></p>
<p>Earth can be a difficult place at times as if your "all unconditional love" with the dense energies you will get smacked!.. Yet people can act so cruel and out of integrity at times - whether they are an adult or kid on the playground "mimicking" their bullying parent.. (with no awareness or consciousness of their cruelty at times). Since I found this in my own family, it's been "peace on earth" anywhere but around certain immediate family members the last few years. I know having loving friends and a love interest that understands (by overcoming similar challenges) helped contribute greatly to my healing too. - as everyone needs to feel loved and understood.</p>
<p>After my years working hard traveling internationally for work and eventually moving out west, I learned how to protect and heal myself and stay away from my parents, sister and their toxicity/gang mentality.. and I felt my confidence grow. I also felt unconditional love and acceptance from my cousins who showed me the same type of unconditional love i had experienced with my grandparents out west and for that I am truly grateful!. </p>
<p>Through sharing this story it is important to state that I forgive and work very hard on seeing my family through the eyes of love and acceptance. I always forgive and work at releasing any past painful memories that pop up from time to time to keep me happy and healed. </p>
<p>As a reminder to those who search deep inside for personal answers and healing.. it is not an overnight process. For example, I had to dig deep into therapy and a variety of indigenous and ancient healing modalities to take my shadow and pain out of the closet to examine it for what it truly was and find the root patterns to heal. It also took strength from ancestors to make up for what i didn't have in my immediate family. ..something my parents couldn't admit to or look at themselves with their level of understanding. Something also that my brother and sisters couldn't understand or acknowledge either. </p>
<p>Today I am happy, healthy and healed and forgive both my parents.. especially for being the "ring leader" of promoting and manipulating group hate and "gang" mentality in my family. </p>
<p>I forgive my mother - with my perspective of how i know her past and present needs healing. it explains for me why she hurts people (including me) and talks about them the way she does. Her past and present is just too painful and she is unwilling to accept that toxic behavior is linked to all her physical health ailments. Just last year she told me she has no desire to change her self, or embrace spirituality or new ways of thinking.. and that is sad - but its her choice. </p>
<p>What energy healing did for me is that it changed and healed ME and gave me "acceptance" for who my parents are and where they are at this lifetime on their spiritual path. I have the utmost patience knowing I'm doing what I'm here for and my mother will heal and forgive others when she is ready to do so, even if it takes her lifetimes.. may she get there when she is ready. </p>
<p>I also forgive my father too for chiming in putting me down so many times to please my mother and for trying to make me feel bad about myself because of his own insecurities, chauvinistic views towards liberated women and his own lack of confidence. Instead, these days I remind and honor the good things my parents have done for me and help prepare my father to grow and enjoy his years left in this lifetime. </p>
<p>As my transformation occurred, what I learned over the years was that my parents were really just two wounded children that grew up and married each other and really didnt not know any better because most parents in their generation weren't taught to work on themselves. I remind myself that I am their wise elder Beezer - the white bearded elder in the Martin Scorsese Film HUGO (ironically Beezer IS my family nickname since birth - now Bee or Auntie Bee for short..). In the film, the elder Beezer tries to advise the two children - (a very small role) but the two main characters, are exactly my two parents IF they had met each other as children this lifetime -and they are still these children today -with the little boy orphaned (just like my grandfather Albert). And my grandparents too were a part of the film with Ben Kingsley playing the role of George (like my maternal grandfather who is also named George) and his wife and muse for his films he makes in the film - a dopplehanger for my grandmother Rose.. Ironically, Hugo came out only a few weeks after I had a chocolatier name HUGO from France custom make a 1959 French chocolate bottle filled with gourmet chocolates for my parents wedding anniversary and gifted my father with a cologne and earphone set for his birthday from HUGO BOSS. Yes, when you know the context of how you know certain individuals in your soul group -no matter how troubled or dysfunctional they behave - when you peel back these layers with your own growing connection to spirit and the help of your ancestors - it really does dissolve the pain and makes you stronger. I know today helping certain family members heal and grow helps me too! </p>
<p>Through this difficult incarnation, the good news is that with healing work, breakthroughs occur and life gets better all the time. The more I heal and the more I share my past wounds to help those in pain to grow and heal, the more I realize just how far I have come to self heal and liberate myself. I constantly work on self-love and focus on moments where I have felt the love of my mother and my ancestors who were parental to me - (this and other lifetimes) to keep the flow of love emanating from my heart and to do the work I am here to do with healing children and adults. </p>
<p>However, I do not heal my mother, as to receive love/healing from me causes her to cry and "short-circuit" - as my path this lifetime is to help her heal by my own personal example (far away) and focus on helping others who need and are receptive to healing. I keep my independence so I can do what I'm here to do. If you give love/healing to someone that is not receptive, you flood them! a kabbalist concept that many spiritual beings understand. </p>
<p>Though some of you reading my blogs may not fully understand it - you don't have to.. I've earned over many lifetimes of carrying and being responsible for others in my soul families the freedom of this lifetime and my choices are my own and right for where I am and need to be in the process of MY path. </p>
<p>Though i cannot change what happened growing up.. or what happened over the years I wouldn't want to. I agreed to it and it has lead me to where I am today. </p>
<p>I am doing what I am here to do and happy doing it. I am comfortable knowing that I picked this path and feel at peace knowing I am handling my life in the best way possible. I always forgive and keep love flowing from my heart by working at it through my spiritual practices.. as love and working the heart to be full of love and tenderness is what keeps us happy and healthy. </p>
<p>Doing my best to always show love and appreciation and praying too for those family members that don't talk to one another that they heal their hurt and pain too by finding out WHY the "pain and separation" is there in the first place. By acknowledging it and healing it - and by knowing the root cause of these separations, at least they can start to make peace with it and self-heal. </p>
<p>Over the past few months through family constellation therapy and yoga - I recently made a list of over ten relationships in my own personal family tree of relations who don't talk anymore. Yes, that many! These are sisters, cousins and some parent child relationships on both sides of my family. =</p>
<p>After making this list, it astonished me that even cousins years ago in the Ukraine - would "white out" family they didn't talk to anymore. (see photo attached and people "whited out" in the back!). Like so many families, rifts between souls in a group can go back many generations!!!. </p>
<p>Though that is a big list, I am not alone, as my clients that come to me all have some level of dysfunction within their family and relationships. If we didn't - we would not be incarnated here on earth - so again, when people say they have nothing to work on and display the perfect family or say things like "I gotta handle on it" , they usually are hiding the biggest ego issues. But again, spirituality and this type of energy healing cannot be coerced. Its for those ready for it and who need it. These clients find me to do the work together when they are ready - I don't have to go looking for them, they just show up. </p>
<p>Creating this list started an opening to not only raise awareness in my own family - but to also have the dialog open for healing all those in this world in need of family constellation therapy. It also validates for me and my clients just how powerful DNA energy healing is to heal these type of "breaks" - caused by core beliefs in one's DNA from genetic/ancestral patterning over several generations. </p>
<p>Sometimes its a stress or depression gene.. other times - its core beliefs carried over 7 or 8 generations back given to your parents and grandparents by their ancestors. Other times its past life areas to be healed/cleared karmically between two individuals from the context "past and present" that they know one another. The reasoning between a rift is always unique to the client experiencing family constellation therapy - but it can be healed.. and it starts with YOU!. </p>
<p>Constellation therapy and healing family relationships with clients showed me that amazing breakthroughs can happen to heal the family unit. It also has made me much more vocal about sharing the work I do to not only help my clients heal, but also to ensure by example that my brother and sisters and my six niece and nephews don't repeat unhealthy cycles in future generations - both genetically and from "learned" behavior by my parents and ancestors. </p>
<p>I am so grateful to those who make the effort to understand family patterns that need healing and hope my sisters follow my older brother in his example to work on themselves. To me - this is truly a sign of promise within my own immediate family that certain family members can take ownership of healing themselves and stopping dysfunctional patterns from resurfacing that may or may not be apparent - as many "core beliefs" can be transmitted down to children in their DNA without the person knowing it or having any awareness that they are repeating unhealthy patterns. </p>
<p>For anyone that has ever had to leave a toxic relationship, whether it be a parent, a partner, a sibling, etc ..The best thing you can do for you is to "self-love" and accept the situation and heal - especially when there is any kind of emotional or physical abuse.</p>
<p>When the person's presence is no longer there for months at a time, you'll know what is best for you - because that separation gives you time to reflect and examine your interaction with that person. For example, for me personally, months turned into years away out west. This gave me a realization of just how controlled and emotionally abused I really was by my parents and how much better I felt about myself setting healthy boundaries and surrounding myself with more positive people who truly took a vested interest in me as a human being with a heart. </p>
<p>Sometimes a permanent break is necessary, especially if a person is not open and willing to heal or treat you right. But only YOU know what is right for you.. the healing we do alleviates the pain by removing the pain and sorrowful memories , replacing them with feeling happy, feeling worthy, feeling healthy and healed along with a better understanding of the "WHYS" within your relationships. and the context of your relations with other people in your soul group. </p>
<p>For example, growing up with a depressed bi-polar mother was tricky for me even in adulthood, as I didn't want to separate!. I would work so hard to get along and be at peace with her instead of separating. I kept trying to make it right and she would be so kind back for a while and would say: "Oh I really want to forget everything I've done to you yesterday and get along with you" and "I'm so sorry" and then, the next day her mood would turn dark for no reason she would turn back into this toxic person and start a tirade ripping me to shreds.. This pattern would re-occur sometimes even after having something beautiful and lovely to share like: " Oh, I dedicated a book I wrote to you." This is an example of how in my case - (and sometimes with clients) - the vessel is not there for the person to receive the love because they are not open or receptive to it and the person needs healing. </p>
<p>For anyone in your life, if a person is NOT happy for you when your happy… or if your love "floods" that person and they have no vessel to receive it, than you must stay away and gravitate towards those that are loving. Including those capable of being happy for you and those who vibrationally get you.. We are fortunate to live in times where we can separate and get help when someone is abusive. </p>
<p>Sometimes people walk away - afraid to confront a toxic person.. However, sometimes with time and healing, being brave enough to be truthful with that person, calling them out on what they are doing may be necessary - especially for those that never had a voice. By being authentic and telling your side, that other person gains "personal awareness" and can address or dig deep on how they can start to self-heal from this experience. They can look at how their actions have harmed you or others in your life. It opens up another perspective for that person to learn to be kinder by examining the pain they have caused others and perhaps allow them to get the help they need.</p>
<p>Change though cannot be forced. Some people are stuck in their ways and unfortunately will never change the pattern this lifetime - because its unconscious and they are not open to change or admit they are doing something wrong - even when they are called on it. </p>
<p>For example, I have an older distant cousin on my mother's side of the family that we called the "problem seeker" - as she would only call if someone was sick, dying etc.. She received some type of jolt in knowing she could help with a problem or talk about bad news to somehow feel better. If you told this person everything was going great" - it would make them angry and they would frown. Their opening line running into them in the neighborhood market was always "Are you happy?" "Is everything Okay?" ."Oh, I heard so and so is sick" . It made me realize that it is a "gene thing" that causes this lady to feel more alive and thriving from the feeling of "needing to be needed" for other people's problems. She only enjoys being around those suffering with some type of problem going on so that she can fix it.. when in turn she is the one that truly needs the internal self-love and healing. This is a trait some other people in my soul group have also displayed - that shows me it is a genetic patterning that needs to be healed and cleared internally when that person is ready. </p>
<p>When you separate yourself from toxicity and toxic people, in time, you will find these wounds heal, and you will recognize the patterns in others and in yourself.. And sometimes when its too prevalent in your own family genetics without getting healed, sometimes your birth family is not your real family. Its the people that want the best for you who share in your successes and that really understand and "get" you. </p>
<p>If you have any kind of relationship that needs healing, don't hesitate to look at what makes you stay around trying to please someone that is not respecting your boundaries or wanting the best for you. You must also look at the "whys"…of particular toxic relationships. Why you agreed to be here incarnated with certain individuals to begin with? What are you supposed to learn with these individual(s)? Is the lesson completed?. During work with my clients, we peel back the layers and understand the "Overall" purpose of a relationship karmically - "past" and "present" - this allows clients to know to what extent they need particular individuals in their lives and to what extent they don't.. Once the karmic lesson is reached with certain people in your life.. you will know - as the answer is different for everyone - but the healing/love will be there. Others, may serve a longer purpose in your lifetime.. the answer is to better understand what a person needs to learn and what a particular relationship represents for you (this time around), for your ultimate growth.</p>
<p>The ten commandments says "Honor your mother and father" - yet what if your mother and father </p>
<p>are toxic and try to harm you?. even as an adult? Do you still pursue a relationship? Do you continue to touch the hot stove and be burned? What if your sister and mom gang up on you? Do you hang around and take the abuse of feeling left out? i don't think so.. Yes, at first i was judged very harshly for distancing myself from my parents and certain family members, but in time, those that loved me and truly knew me realized the truth and understood- even if its not their path or remotely close, that I did and continue doing what is best for the situation. Though I am spiritual and not religious, Christianity and Judaism both say there are exceptions to this particular ten commandment - especially when you are mistreated or abused in any way.</p>
<p>Though my parents may one day be healed, (this lifetime or another lifetime), I have all the love, patience, forgiveness and acceptance in the world. I picked this path.. to heal me.. to heal others, and to have my well deserved freedom, therefore there are no regrets. </p>
<p>For my clients, "their movie" is NOT my movie".. and proud to say that we have had many successful cases of family relationship rifts healed from our work together - and breakthroughs with clients finding their own movie that resonates in their heart. These profound healings make me very very happy! However, each case is different, and sometimes healing you.. shifts the ofter people in your soul group - so a separation or temporary separation is possible - but it all leads eventually to a happy outcome that is in the best interest of my client and their healing- because it comes from them and it is healed with love. All I do is humbly connect clients to creator and have them feel and approve what changes we make. The client self-heals because they are proactively co-creating the healing and feeling the work we do. </p>
<p>I hope by sharing this, people will love, forgive, and heal from </p>
<p>any pain they have had to experience with toxic relationships in their lives, whatever it may be. </p>
<p>Even if an apology from the individuals who hurt you is never given, imagine it - as it will be making YOURSELF feel good! and that should be your top priority - as it keeps you happy, healthy and free! </p>
<p>Once cleared - no one can take away anyone's joy.. especially if its in your nature and personality.</p>
<p>A person can obtain more joy if they want to clear their depression.. but again that's the key.. A depressed person must WANT to clear it! , (like I wrote about in my last blog), Depression is different for each person and it depends on the person's relationship to it. Some love having a "wooh is me" attitude like the schlep rock cartoon character, and depression is their best friend. Playing the victim and being depressed sometimes serves a purpose or attention for that person. Others truly want the depression healed and the joy they have experienced before to return. it just depends.. its different for everyone. </p>
<p>In the future, I look forward to sharing more blogs on healing both physical and emotional ailments </p>
<p>and repairing family relationships from more case studies to help others reading this. It is important too that healthy adults make for happy children, therefore my work at Exit27 Transformational Healing is equally important to the work we do helping children with PALS AROUND THE WORLD.</p>
<p>For more questions or comments, or a remote or in-person healing, please feel free to email me at: exit27healing@gmail.com</p>

<p>Enjoy your week!</p>

<p>Everyone in life is hit with adversity at some point. When you and/or someone you love experience some type of tragic circumstance or interference, you must find yourself a new dream. Even if someone you once loved/thought was meant to be a part of your life is no longer here. You must accept circumstances and not let this change taint you or your heart.

<p>Everyone in life is hit with adversity at some point. When you and/or someone you love experience some type of tragic circumstance or interference, you must find yourself a new dream. Even if someone you once loved/thought was meant to be a part of your life is no longer here. You must accept circumstances and not let this change taint you or your heart. Healing from painful circumstances like the pain of divorce or the loss of a loved one can be difficult for people and their families, but we are all capable of healing, just like we are all capable of falling in love with more than one person in a lifetime at any age. As the saying goes.. "time heals all wounds." One of my biggest role models for love at any age was my widowed grandfather George ("Poppies"), who remarried after being widowed after 50 years of marriage in his 80s! </p>
<p></p>
<p>Though love can feel great when young or old - sometimes others - especially those NOT following a heart path or who don't have deep felt connection in their own relationships - don't like it or understand it. I find this especially to be true with those going through new found changes…, that is why people who find love again after divorce or widowhood often make new friends and associations, to start a clean slate. This may include the exclusion of some family too. </p>
<p>For a while, there may be people in your life who may not understand your needs to let certain aspects of your past go, including people, places and/or belongings that keep them stuck in the past. Othertimes, those in your life may not be able to share in your newfound happiness (as they may feel stuck or unable to make the breakthroughs or necessary changes they need to make things better in their own relationships through healing or therapy, etc..) Therefore, those not understanding you or your decisions (because they are not dealing with their own) may not be the best energy to have in your life when you embark on changes. Only you know what decisions, people and places are really right for you with whatever road you take and whoever you choose to be with on your journey - and that includes in the best interest of your children too. Once you "strip away" conditioning and unconscious habits - you can really choose what road is best with confidence, regardless of what other people think. Looking to your contemporaries and their decisions doesn't work.. as your life and choices are not theres! Everyone may want you to go one way.. and deep down you know your decision leads you another way. When this occurs, you have to stick to your guns.. as your decisions and circumstances are unique to you and your higher self… and if others judge you - so what?! they are NOT you.. and until someone walks in your shoes, they really cannot judge you or your heart.</p>10,000 year history at least of Hempentag:www.worldviewzmedia.net,2014-08-18:2098065:BlogPost:948172014-08-18T02:36:28.000ZRobert Dakotahttp://www.worldviewzmedia.net/profile/RobertDakota

<p>In the wake of Robin Williams passing Monday, I want to share more on the topic </p>
<p>of healing clients with depression as a way of helping those who suffer from it or who</p>
<p>have a loved one currently battling depression. While we all have good or bad days, and</p>
<p>experience depression at some point in our lives, suffering from depression</p>
<p>is something one can ONLY understand if they truly experience a person's pain </p>
<p>directly themselves. This experience occurs when I heal clients with depression or any other ailment</p>
<p>-as the pain is "felt," and experienced during our healing work together. Oftentimes,</p>
<p>its felt before sessions too, as explained in my 3 client case studies below. </p>
<p></p>
<p>Since earth is a learning ground, everyone goes through some form</p>
<p>of loss or depression at some point, otherwise we wouldn't be here.</p>
<p>However, everyones "root source" and degree of depression is different. </p>
<p></p>
<p>For example, I personally went through a depressed state during my spiritual awakening </p>
<p>five-six years ago with the loss of my pet and a miscarriage among other life changes</p>
<p>to emerge from my cocoon and be me and my multi-dimensional self. My own healing path</p>
<p>was shared including how I used energy healing to self heal - weeding out emotions and patterns ancestrally </p>
<p>and personally over lifetimes that were holding me back. </p>
<p>Something I have not been shy about sharing to help others heal in my blogs over the years. </p>
<p>Today, I work on continually staying happy and healthy and help my clients achieve that too, </p>
<p>so that they can be their ultimate best - and feel great inside and out. </p>
<p></p>
<p>An upbeat "funny" person - that is depressed may disguise it well by being the class clown that</p>
<p>entertains everyone -much like Robin Williams and other comedians. They sometimes hide their pain, because they don't want to be a burden and/or don't know how to share or even ask for help.. or may be too proud to ask.</p>
<p>Often times its a drug or chemical dependency disguising the root cause of their depression. </p>
<p>Those that fall into this personality category - in the wake of Robin Williams passing, will forever</p>
<p>make those in our society look a little deeper and question whether the "class clown" entertaining</p>
<p>us is truly happy or in need of help for depression. </p>
<p>On the opposite spectrum, sometimes those that are depressed may tell everyone they are upset, </p>
<p>and may not really want you to help them heal or take it away from them - as the depression</p>
<p>sometimes serves as a "crutch" for that person, like an old friend that they like having around. Another</p>
<p>type is the secretive depressed person that has trouble even telling those closest to them</p>
<p>that they are depressed and in need of help and instead - just withdraw from the world as they</p>
<p>don't want to "burden" others. </p>
<p></p>
<p>These are only some of the scenarios of depression. There are many others. </p>
<p>The truth in knowing if a client is depressed (with or without them telling me) - </p>
<p>will come through information shown to me before and during our healing session.. along with the root cause.</p>
<p>As I recently shared, Depression is tricky and involves re-balancing</p>
<p>the hormonal imbalance in the brain along with removing the root cause of the </p>
<p>depression. Sometimes this is from past or present lifetimes, but it will require removing </p>
<p>and re-activating certain core beliefs to heal cognitive functions/thought patterns so the client will feel better. </p>
<p>It may also stem genetically in a person's DNA. For example, if your grandfather suffered</p>
<p>from depression, you may be carrying certain genetic traits passed on in your DNA.</p>
<p>When depression is genetically inherited, it will reveal itself in our work together and will be removed. </p>
<p>Though energy healing is great for depression - again.. it may or may not be the right modality unless</p>
<p>a person is open and ready for it - as we are all at different levels of understanding at this time. </p>
<p>However in the future, it will be one of the main sources of healing it and other diseases. </p>
<p></p>
<p>Prior to a session with a new client - Whatever the person is experiencing and in need of healing, I will know, </p>
<p>as the signs will be shown to me - along with feelings/</p>
<p>sensations, insights, etc. Since my clients range from young teens to every day people to celebs - </p>
<p>I always ensure APA confidentiality agreements with my clients are reviewed and signed in advance and that advance prep rules are followed. I also ensure that file cases are handwritten (the "old school" way) and kept in a safe place to ensure privacy and confidentiality. </p>
<p></p>
<p>Below are a few Case Studies I would like to share with you of 3 different clients who </p>
<p>suffered from depression. All completely different root causes for the disease and all brave enough to</p>
<p>"proactively" face healing it in miraculous ways. It is my hope that by sharing these case studies with you, we can heal more people suffering from depression and prevent more suicides in the future in the wake of this weeks loss.</p>
<p>RIP Robin Williams.. You personally inspired me by example - as someone who was bullied growing up attending the very same middle school in Detroit where I was bullied, and showed me that things do get better. Thank you for being you and for inspiring the world!! Though you left us too soon, we love you and you will be forever a part of our hearts and our world! </p>
<p></p>
<p>CASE 1: DEPRESSION THAT STEMMED FROM FEARS, CHILDHOOD BULLYING</p>
<p>AND NOT WANTING TO BE ON EARTH: </p>
<p></p>
<p>This unusual case study involves a female client from Europe in her mid-fifties who is well educated with</p>
<p>several advanced degrees in the science field. My client scheduled an appointment with me complaining</p>
<p>of very low energy (not calling it depression). I recall calling my friend the day before her appointment and saying</p>
<p>"I feel soooo very low and depressed" - and I didn't know why?" It was such a foreign</p>
<p>feeling to me! Right away, speaking these words, I realized it was this client's energy I was</p>
<p>experiencing prior to her appointment. </p>
<p>The client arrived the next day with a host of symptoms ranging from suspected Graves disease..to feelings</p>
<p>she was possibly abused as a child in infancy.. to Atrial Fibrillation, but when I remote viewed inside her body - she </p>
<p>didn't have Graves or any past lifetimes at all!.. only bullying/abuse in THIS lifetime in early childhood and belief work to heal. as her fears of not being accepted were causing her to feel loneliness and depression in this lifetime.</p>
<p>She also had light or no traces of Graves (which I asked her to later go back and confirm with her MD). Though</p>
<p>I saw the "Afib" in her heart - it had surfaced, because she wanted to leave here (Earth) for not "fitting in." A core belief we were able to remove and heal. As although her father was comfortable in his skin being a leading scientist, she was not, and often had fears of not being accepted for their pioneering work. </p>
<p></p>
<p>The Atrial Fibrillation was shown to be caused/ escalated by enormous fears causing her to manifest being attacked for being different and having a genius level IQ. (As this particular client had her research confiscated, etc. this lifetime for its ground breaking advancement). </p>
<p>We also healed both her present and childhood this lifetime and made her feel safe here on earth and also "accepted and loved" unconditionally for who she is and the amazing gifts she brings with her during this lifetime. By changing her DNA and imprinting these new set of core beliefs -the depression was healed at the "root level." </p>
<p></p>
<p>During this session, we also removed the fear of rejection for being different in the NOW and gave her a sense of calmness and happiness and unconditional love/acceptance by colleagues for her ground breaking scientific work and the ability to make friends and have a love interest just by being her - without having to try and "fit in" </p>
<p>2-3 weeks later, post-visit, I learned my client received a great report from her MD and was completely off her "beta blockers" - so happy!</p>
<p>In addition, all post memories of feeling hurt/unloved for being bullied in her school days and up to 6 years ago as an adult were distant memories. In this particular client's "unique case" - she sought out alternative healers for ailments she didn't have as a way to try to "fit in" on the earth plane because she didn't feel she belonged here. She felt uncomfortable using her unique gifts - ahead of their time, something she no longer feels self-conscious of, but proud to be a pioneer. As yes, she was truly one of a handful of Alien "new-bees" I have healed with no previous past lifetimes in her energy field!</p>
<p>We helped her realize her life purpose for being here to help others with her work, and by doing so, we relieved her "homesickness" to leave earth - making her comfortable in her soul path. </p>
<p>By getting to the "root", my client learned the lesson of the disease, as she realized she could not just "check out and leave" this lifetime without doing what she came here to do - as she has very important work to help mankind with her patent breakthroughs.</p>
<p>With new imprints to feel loved and appreciated, and a new found better understanding of herself, and her path and why she incarnated here with her father, 6 months later, my client is now happily living and enjoying her life, thriving at her work and in a love relationship. </p>
<p></p>
<p></p>
<p>CASE 2: DEPRESSION THAT STEMMED FROM BEING THE NEW KID IN TOWN -</p>
<p>CHILDHOOD WOUNDS AND COMPULSIVE OBSESSIVE DISORDER</p>
<p></p>
<p>My next case study I would like to share, is a client with depression in his early 30s. </p>
<p>This particular client had deep depression since his teen years that stemmed</p>
<p>from moving all over the US with his family at an early age.</p>
<p>After arriving to new towns, my client always had to "fit in" and make new friends.</p>
<p>Being the shortest in his class when he was younger - he found it was not always easy</p>
<p>to be accepted and be the new kid at school. In fact, he was often bullied so much that</p>
<p>even as an adult - it was leading him to play "old feelings" over again and not </p>
<p>feel "worthy" at times from this experience. </p>
<p></p>
<p>As a way of coping, my client developed OCD, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder at an early age to deal with his depression and anxiety when moving around. Something that he carried over into adulthood. </p>
<p></p>
<p>Upon our first appointment, I asked him about his OCD, (something he didn't disclose but that Creator</p>
<p>showed me before his appointment). In addition to tackling his depression and anxiety once and for all, this particular client was in the midst of heavy spiritual transformation - seeking out healings and trans-meditational</p>
<p>practices - making it easy for him to relax and tune-in to the healing work we needed to do. </p>
<p>Prior to seeking out alternative treatments, my client first tried for years to heal his depression with the Western MD</p>
<p>approach to his depression. For ten years, my client took a drug called Lexipro - (used under a different synthetic name in Europe). Like with many clients who have taken it, he felt numbed in his mind, making him sluggish and slow for a long time. In order to live and "feel" alive again - my client decided to stop taking the drugs for several months. Despite feeling better, my client felt that he still needed to heal the dark thought patterns he found arising inside his head over and over again. </p>
<p>Clients taking certain western anti-depressant or anxiety medications prescribed by western MDs will not make for good transformational energy healing candidates - especially if a client is too "numbed" out to connect. </p>
<p>Fortunately, since this particular client was off the drug for many months (it was no longer in his system), we could do our session. with no interferences. </p>
<p></p>
<p>When connecting to my client's energy field, the OCD and the root cause from moving </p>
<p>around and being bullied were felt, and healed - as the OCD was his "coping mechanism" for</p>
<p> the anxiety brought on by new surroundings, new people and new towns .. a repeat pattern in his childhood from</p>
<p>his father's job transfers. </p>
<p>The client was re-imprinted with the core beliefs of being able to relax around people in all existing and new situations socially, personally and professionally. This was particularly important, as my client worked</p>
<p>in sales and was constantly meeting new people. We also healed his throat chakra, making him</p>
<p>know that he is accepted for who he is and worthy of being people's friend,</p>
<p>significant other, etc.. without having to do things he did not feel comfortable with to fit in: (I,e, </p>
<p>drinking, drugs or alcohol), or trying to impress people as a way of being accepted. </p>
<p></p>
<p>Lastly, we removed the pain and trauma of childhood bullying and healed</p>
<p>past and present-lifetime trauma with his father that surfaced in this lifetime, </p>
<p>particularly a "competitiveness" that stemmed from a past Moroccan Lifetime</p>
<p>that continued over into this lifetime. The work we did gave my client "total</p>
<p>acceptance" and better understanding of the context of how he knew his</p>
<p>dad in the past and how it related to their present relationship and their differences</p>
<p>about money and their competitiveness. It also helped him to have</p>
<p>more acceptance (based on this new found information) of his dad for </p>
<p>who he is this lifetime without taking his differing opinions and lazy lifestyle personally. </p>
<p></p>
<p>Post follow-up a month later, my client is not only looking and feeling great, but the depression</p>
<p>is gone and he finds his communication with co-workers and his girlfriend much</p>
<p>improved along with a glowing "zest" for life. Always happy to hear that! </p>
<p></p>
<p></p>
<p>CASE 3: HEALING DEPRESSION FROM MULTIPLE SOURCES</p>
<p></p>
<p>Sometimes a client has so much healing to do that the depression</p>
<p>is masked by multiple areas that need to be cleared up. </p>
<p></p>
<p>Such is the case of my next client, a gay Latino male in his early 40s</p>
<p>who works in entertainment. My client - a very outgoing</p>
<p>and friendly man who always helps people - found that he had </p>
<p>been stuck in an abusive relationship that was making him feel down</p>
<p>and suicidal at times. </p>
<p></p>
<p>While this was the reason for his visit, there were several areas</p>
<p>that were intuitively shown to me both before the appointment</p>
<p>and during our session - that showed what needed healing and </p>
<p>the root cause of these feelings.</p>
<p></p>
<p>For starters, my client had closure issues with his adoptive father</p>
<p>who passed away tragically when he was only a teen. This was</p>
<p>something that left him feeling a deep sense of loss without closure. </p>
<p>We were also shown deep lessons to be learned this life with both</p>
<p>his adoptive mother and father and learning to be </p>
<p>authentic with them along with being his true self with this father (on the other side)</p>
<p>who accepts him as being gay. </p>
<p>Through our work together, we healed his throat</p>
<p>chakra and helped him find his authentic "true voice" with </p>
<p>co-workers, his family and his partner. This was especially important, </p>
<p>as before his visit, he told white lies and gave people what they "wanted to here" </p>
<p>instead of being "authentic" and telling the truth about how he truly felt.</p>
<p>Something my client confirmed during our post visit follow-up, but something that </p>
<p>he wasn't able to "recognize" in himself until a month or so after our healing - as his </p>
<p>behavior patterns were unconscious. </p>
<p></p>
<p>Next, I was shown a contractual relationship/ friendship past lifetime</p>
<p>with his birth mother (this lifetime) who agreed to birth him into this world. It</p>
<p>was shown that they had no mutual desire to find each other (this lifetime)</p>
<p>as they both know the lesson here was for my client to learn to use his voice and </p>
<p>learn other lessons with his adoptive parents - not his birth mother. </p>
<p>My client confirmed that he does in fact have no desire or need to look up his birth mother and</p>
<p>this too resonated before we cleared childhood belief patterns/wounds. </p>
<p></p>
<p>Next, we did work to better understand the abusive love relationship he had with his</p>
<p>current boyfriend, who is close in age and also Latino. A big connection to Peru was shown</p>
<p>to me past life where my client was the favorite son of his boyfriend in a Peruvian Incan life, many lifetimes</p>
<p>ago. My client started to shout "I cannot believe you are seeing this - as I have had a fascination</p>
<p>with Peru, suggested we vacation there together and my boyfriend just went there for business!" </p>
<p>My clients current boyfriend was controlling "this lifetime" because of his role as his father (past lifetime)</p>
<p>in Peru, where my client was killed. This helped my client peel back the layers and "better understand" the whys - </p>
<p>with his current partner as to why he was so over-bearing and possessive this lifetime and allowed</p>
<p>him to set healthier boundaries with him to be treated like an equal, instead of a child. He also found he could now be more "authentic" and honest with his boyfriend when he objected to his boyfriends controlling ways. </p>
<p>All the imprints and healing we did lifted my clients depression so dramatically that</p>
<p>he ended this unusually long session with uncontrollable laughter! Something my client said he had not experienced,</p>
<p>in many years. Feeling elated that we did successful healing work to clear his depression, but knowing the </p>
<p>importance of ensuring my clients are grounded after our work together, I insisted he stay</p>
<p>and drink a full glass of water and smoke one of his organic cigarettes. This was appropriate,</p>
<p>as my client is a smoker who didn't want to quit at the time, so putting him on my terrace to make sure he was grounded enough to the earth plane to drive home safely, and ensuring he drank his water helped him cure his giggles. :)</p>
<p>Since Peruvian Shamans use Natural tobacco to heal in the Amazon, and given my client's comfort</p>
<p>level with this healing modalities of Peru - it was the best grounding for him. For other clients it may be holding a crystal or ensuring they eat a piece of food to ground themselves. The approach and healing used is always adjusted vibrationally to the person's comfort level in the now - based on their "past and present" </p>
<p></p>
<p>As some of you will learn, when you experience a healing like this, </p>
<p>it is quite normal to feel "floaty" and "dizzy" from working so high in the ethers.. but our </p>
<p>life and spiritual purpose is here on the earth plane, therefore drinking fluids and ensuring</p>
<p>my clients are fully present and okay to leave is a necessary step to close sessions - though I was thrilled</p>
<p>that my client found his "laugh attack" so very healing and enjoyable. </p>
<p></p>
<p>Post follow up three months later, my client feels much more vocal with people who over-step </p>
<p>boundaries with him. In turn, he ended his abusive relationship with his boyfriend, moved to a new place,</p>
<p>and found a more suitable roommate that respected his rules/boundaries. He also sounds truly happy with no more</p>
<p>depression and anxiety.</p>
<p>Proof by example that my client healed the depression stemming from our work healing multiple areas.</p>
<p>He no longer allows people to take advantage of him - speaking honestly/authentically, and has closure</p>
<p>with his dad on the other side who loves and accepts him for who he is - feeling happier and more at ease. </p>

<p><span>Before our gathering at Return of the Ancestors.. for over ten years in fact, others like Drunvalo and healers around the world have been repairing the earth's grid for the return and activation of energies that have been dormant for thousa</span><span class="text_exposed_show">nds of years on this plant.. Many of these crystal pyramids never worked on their own, as they were all interconnected to activate these energy points to work. Long ago, the Pyramids allowed us all to communicate without words or language via telepathy, teleportation, telekinesis, etc. During those times, words and written form were not of importance. The fall of Atlantis -when the crystalline girds were deactivated so long ago -caused this connection to be lost and we went back to our primitive nature. For several years and continuing over the coming decades, these encoded energy fields will be coming back to us and as they do, people will continue to be at different levels of intuition and understanding on this earth plane. Some will tap into these energy fields and some of you will not - as the energy is encoded and is determined by your path. The more a person ascends, the more they will have an increased ability to tap into multiple energy fields to transmit information to the brain. This is not possible at the capacity it once was at this time as most human brains would "short-circuit" by not having the current capacity to handle all the information being turned back on. With what the Mayan call the 6th katun, and women leading this "Shift in Humanity" at this time with their Divine feminine energy, it is the women who will be the more receptive gender to receiving the information that is coming back to us with this new cycle that started a few years ago that will continue throughout the coming years - but it is a slow transition "back" to what we know, what we remember, and where we came from.<a href="http://api.ning.com:80/files/TiGlW1XckRZjX52eWxryAhe3TC3WHy-UyNH1mnYU-d7WVw7VJZUjTF0IfnHFbQF3Id9qrufESAlQAMVbq9gc92*fI37w9Ut2/ScreenShot20140709at12.03.42PM.png" target="_self">Screen%20Shot%202014-07-09%20at%2012.03.42%20PM.png</a></span></p>Telepathy and Purpose - the Children of Todaytag:www.worldviewzmedia.net,2014-06-05:2098065:BlogPost:937552014-06-05T23:39:50.000ZLeslye Jacobshttp://www.worldviewzmedia.net/profile/LeslyeJacobs

<p>While some refer to children born in the 90s as crystal children, and the previous generation before that as Indigo, we should not put a label on kids as they are all at different levels of growth and understanding in this world.<br/>However, having six niece and nephews and all kinds of children in my life as an educator, healer and friend, I see the amazing skills today that adults are only beginning to truly understand.<br/>Like many of the special children being born, autistic children/autistic spectrum children do not need words to communicate. Many of their ques are non verbal via ESP - communicated telepathically, like a dolphin. The same is true with mainstream children being more in-tune vibrationally through intuition to show or communicate what is going on with them at times, instead of needing to verbalize it. <br/>Though these crystal children and the autistic children share some characteristics that are alike - what is coming soon is rainbow children who will have even greater concern for the planet and deeper divinity. These kids will be coming in when these crystal children from the 90s (many reaching young adulthood now) start having their own children. At this point, these children known as Rainbow warriors - (just like we were called at the Mayan gathering at Return of the Ancestors in 2009 to prepare for the shift), are really going to be the ones helping to save the planet! These rainbow children from around the world born in the new age of Aquarius will come in to remove more outdated and negative values - ushering in a time of more love, peace and unity in the world and with each other. Those acting out of integrity, like I've written about in earlier blogs will be transparent.. and will be forced to change and transmute their old ways even more.<br/>Again, the most beautiful value of all these children, like animals - is that they can communicate with you clearly without using words. If your a parent with a child born from the 90s on.. or are a parent that has a special needs child, the more you meditate and become "in-tune" the more receptive you will be to their vibrational ques - to help you better understand the gifts they bring and what you need to learn from them as your child. <br/>Regarding telepathy between myself and especially autistic children, there are too many stories to share, but I was reminded yesterday to write this blog given what happened.<br/>I arrived home late to find a beautiful perfect looking life-size piñata next to my dumpster as I entered my home. At first I thought to myself. "This couldn't be Princess Sophia.. could it?" … but upon closer examination I noticed that this piñata was the size of a little girl and that it was indeed Disney's Princess Sophia! Little Sissy or Princess Sophia - as my friend Alexandra's daughter is called is 11 years old with autism spectrum. Since we met a year ago upon returning to Miami, (like other autistic children) she communicates with me telepathically, often telling me what she wants and needs both directly and through other people. She can also read my thoughts at times. As usual, she was wanting me to give her this piñata for her big birthday party tomorrow along with the gift I already bought her, (her birthday was earlier this week), but apparently didn't want me to spend more money on another gift, so she just arranged for it to be there!. On another occasion celebrating the 4th of July last year, Sophia.. or "Sissy" as we call her just had little kids run up to me in Target tossing things she would like for the trip in my shopping basket - knowing that I would be arriving at the vacation compound in Orlando the next day!!<br/>Then there is my cousin David in LA (also autistic), who upon listening to the Gypsy kings one day on a family outing with my cousins to Santa Monica, chose one song in particular out of a thousand or so songs on my ipod to listen to. This particular song was by the Gypsy Kings and while we listened, my cousin Stevie was driving and we were all led to park directly in front of the exact location at the 3rd St Promenade where a band was playing the exact same Gypsy kings song at the exact same moment! There was also the time when David was making name tags for my cousin's holiday party one year, and I lovingly nicknamed him "Ink Jet" - as he was able to reproduce any font on the computer for each guest's name tag. These are just some of the many artistic and musical talents they have. Yes these kids are gifts to this earth and have so many special qualities they are bringing with them. The subtle clues are there… you just have to be aware and in-tune.<br/>Though these are only a few short examples of how these special kids communicate via ESP and telepathy. Those newly "tuning in" will better understand the purpose of these children today and why they are here, but is time to pay attention!.<br/>As transcendental meditation/yoga and connection to spirit increases, so too does the unity love, healing and understanding of one another on this earth - especially the children. Its a beautiful thing to see, and so glad to see it finally happening!<a href="http://api.ning.com:80/files/QsQ1m7RyND0V8xXun4K8mpE8yVsIsNd*WbOS5UvzTHfLA9j*hMCYOyT-cbjG65BuD1Odhxm1Yc6OavXqTQkWzjBamfIWJGyx/ScreenShot20140605at7.24.42PM.png" target="_self">Screen%20Shot%202014-06-05%20at%207.24.42%20PM.png</a></p>Buffy makes it shinytag:www.worldviewzmedia.net,2014-06-03:2098065:BlogPost:935582014-06-03T09:37:31.000ZEileen O'Toolehttp://www.worldviewzmedia.net/profile/EileenOToole130

<p>Meiji Jingu is one of my favorite places to visit when I go to Tokyo, Japan. I have always had a great affection for this place. Especially the tradition of going to offer prayers on New Years, where 100's of thousands of people attend ceremonies and shrines and offer prayers for the coming year. I have attended New Year pilgrimage's with upwards of 60,000 people…</p>

Devotion and dedication to prayer is still a part of the people. It is so interesting for me to participate in prayer especially collectively in person in the flesh with 60,000 other people.</p>
<p></p>
<p>This is another favorite of mine Sensoji to visit New Year's Day, Yeh! I love this energy!</p>

I know everyone is not offering or asking for the same things, but the intent of the heart comes through anyway. That's "power"; the shared collective intent of the heart. I find that fascinating and what I love about the Japanese - Yapanesia culture, they have big heart and deep soul. Like US, they too have a view of very tough times in our near immediate future, but unlike US, they BE calm and find ways to cope and bring dignity to circumstance...</p>

Ingredients that changes perception, that then changes reality... That's what I witness when I participate in the activity of conscious prayer. I see it in customs across the globe which tells me it is a common theme, which informs me of a common truth. Universal in nature.</p>

Our happiness in being who we are, and love to BE is the happiness and joy of a Mother to her child. When I saw this exhibition at Meiji Jingu honoring a female and feminine energy on the 100 year anniversary of her passing, I wanted to share the unique insight of Japanese culture. I do not know if their is a true authentic appreciation for this Empress but she is still today an effective contributor to women in the modern world.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Also I am taken by the fact that Japan and the US have had an ongoing culture exchange for over 120 years whatever form it has taken. The Empress was fond of the American Benjamin Franklyn and integrated some of his personal philosophies, even I wasn't aware of these philosophies of Franklyn's until I saw this exhibition. So a tribute to the feminine everywhere past, present, future, within US all.</p>

<p>Young or old, rich or poor, and regardless of cultural background… Emotional Abuse is just as dangerous as other types of abuse but more difficult to detect - as its words leave scars that hit just as hard as a punch.. However, the difference with emotional abuse is it cannot easily be seen. Even with intuition to peel back the layers and know what is truly going on takes time - but as more people grow spiritually and evolve, so too, does awareness for what a person is going through without words. As now more than ever - things are transparent and people can sense or "feel" what is going on.. even if it is not spoken. Educators and Case Workers with these abilities are so very needed with these intuitive gifts - as children's lives depend on it.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Emotional Abuse is a form of abuse more common than most people realize. It occurs in both children and in adults. Oftentimes, many of your adult peers are survivors of emotional abuse. </p>
<p></p>
<p>You will find emotional abuse in places you don't expect it.. for example, like me in middle to upper class families where the sense of "shame and embarrassment," cause it to go unnoticed or undetected and especially downplayed .. that was especially true for me and how I hid it and refused to look at it for what it was for many years…. as everyone wants to think of their family as the perfect family full of love and togetherness.. To break or challenge that mold in our society is strictly taboo…especially growing up in a place like Michigan where people would rather "cut off" their right arm than let their kid leave and live their lives somewhere else.. Regardless of that mentality,with the economic changes in Detroit - that is what has happened over the past few decades.. and not just in places like Detroit. Oftentimes, wherever one lives in the world - children now-a-days move away for the betterment of their lives and to have freedom to live, nurture their "inner child" and be happy. Not all kids who move away are abused but many who do move away were controlled, bullied and emotionally abused - yet covered up the facade that they had the "loving and perfect" family. These are the ones who sometimes have the hardest time with doing the work - as not everyone can look at their wounds and examine what is wrong to make it better. </p>
<p></p>
<p>Victims of emotional abuse must first identify the emotional abuse they went through before they can make the breakthrough to heal it otherwise they risk becoming abusers themselves when they have children and unconsciously repeat the abuse.. not realizing they are doing anything wrong. </p>
<p></p>
<p>It is never to late to self heal or confront abuse. The worst excuse made in our society is when abusers age and become elderly.. It is especially true when a parent has dementia or some type of behavioral disorder brought on with age and failing health. However, this should not be an excuse. The truth is .. whether a parent was 30 or 80 yrs old - oftentimes the abuse was always there.. and just gets magnified with age and these behavioral changes. There are plenty of nice elderly people who help others who don't walk around having rages getting angry at others.. so society cannot label elderly people's age as an excuse to harm, control, belittle or alienate adult children or others they choose to victimize. </p>
<p></p>
<p>The worst part too is relatives who recognize emotional abuse going on but who are too afraid to confront it or acknowledge it. This I analogize to the Holocaust when certain people knew what was going on and pretended they didnt notice the abuse. By pretending abuse doesn't exist in one's extended family - turning a "blind eye" to it because a relative is too afraid to confront or address it -because it doesn't concern them or they don't want to get involved - reflects a cowardly "self-centered" way of thinking. It shows publicly they condone the abuse by remaining silent and by not having the humanity or compassion to acknowledge that it is occurring. </p>
<p></p>
<p>Many adult clients I have healed and/or talked to that are victims of parental emotional abuse often have to do the most amount of healing/forgiveness with themselves and do come to peace with their parents. They realize their parents cannot be changed - and they recognize some of the patterns they have repeated in their lives by choice of partner and/or their own similar behaviors. In severe cases of adult emotional abuse, most clients Ive worked with have had the confidence to no longer be around their parents and feel at peace with their healing and healthy boundaries. </p>
<p></p>
<p>In some severe cases, the damage inflicted was too painful and their own path to healing is why they chose these parents. Even to a 6 ft 4 adult running back… the pain and trauma of an elderly father half his size who verbally and physically abused him when he was young may simply be too much to bare - even in old age. That is why rather than take revenge on parents who were emotionally abusive, adult victims of abuse may simply choose to stay away to maintain feeling love and empowerment - rather than be reduced to a helpless child that is made to feel everything is their fault. </p>
<p></p>
<p>Oftentimes a victim of emotional abuse (because of the shame and embarrassment) can be good at hiding what they have been through because they haven't yet dealt with their truth. I know for me personally, I have been regarded as professional, accomplished, charming, outgoing, friendly, and well-liked by friends, peers and colleagues. Not words that I used, but words used by close friends who know me that I agree with as attributes in myself.. But like in my own personal example, the outward appearance doesn't always show what someone has had to endure privately. In fact, emotional abuse comes in so many forms and disguises it can be extremely hard to detect - which is why I urge those reading this to gain greater awareness and insight into yourself and others through daily reflection and mediation. As parents, educators, spouses and all members of our society - this is especially important as we spiritually grow and evolve. </p>
<p></p>
<p>Though my path and plight is to help love, nurture, empower and support children and adults to feel loved, encouraged and supported to dream big and grow up to be the best they can be.. it took time and healing to realize for me that having children of my own this lifetime was not my path. My path was to work on healing myself so that i could support and help heal all the kids and the adults needing to love and nurture their "inner child" - a path that is so important to me.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Like one of my role models: Dr. Seuss - who loved and helped educate the kids of the world without having his own, I choose to follow a similar path.. and deep down especially in my early 30s when I contemplated having kids before I fully sought help and qualifications to heal and fully deal with my childhood wounds, I was always too afraid I would "act out" like my parents. Though I know better now-a-days.. parenting my dog Romeo who was my first glimpse at what my parenting would be like if i had children - and with the boundaries not in place - it was disasterous. </p>
<p></p>
<p> "Lil" Romeo" - my 3 pound maltese born in the early 2000s was my child. He was the perfect example of not confronting my truths or setting healthy boundaries with my family who were overly involved in my life and decisions - even living a million miles away in Los Angeles!. When I moved to Los Angeles in 2005, Romeo was removed from me by my father who insisted i could not take the dog west. It was the fight with my father to have Romeo in California that was my biggest lesson that ended tragically. During my parents winter visits, I would make Romeo's flight reservations and my father would fight me canceling it. It escalated to my sister Pam stepping in and insisting and bullying me along with my parents that the dog should stay in Detroit with my sister in the winter and a week in a kennel. As my good friends know - my voice was not heard or considered (as usual) and this ended tragically with Romeo being unsupervised, running away and being hit by a car and found dead by the side of the road by a police officer. Though my parents and sister felt bad.. I was made to feel like it was somehow my fault when I faught hard to be with my dog and stop their plans. However, that is how a bully will operate - they will dismiss every thought, feeling and opinion you have - even to the point of making everything your fault.</p>
<p>To deal with the situation, my parents went out and got three new puppies. not a way to handle someone grieving over losing their animal they weren't allowed to raise. This example made it clear in my mind and my heart that I would not have kids as long as my parents were in my life and trying to harm and control me and anyone I loved. </p>
<p></p>
<p>Though you can't change or make abusers heal or get help.. you can take ownership of healing yourself through self-love and being brave enough to do the work and step away. Going through the digging work to unearth subconsciously what happens to you when your young (things you may or may not be aware of) and from many lifetimes where lessons repeat allows you to change the course of your life by removing negative programming and creating the self-healing you need. This will definitely lead to a more happy and fulfilling life. We are all here to learn - so those that say they don't have any reflection or growing to do have the biggest ego problems. </p>
<p></p>
<p>The idea for adult survivors of parental abuse is to set the standards for how you are willing to be treated - but this can only be done with breakthroughs made by having the therapy and healing you need. </p>
<p>Even as a healer - I have constant "tune ups" and do chakra balancing to be as clear a channel as possible for myself, my loved ones and for my clients. </p>
<p></p>
<p>By developing your own self-standard reference for yourself, truly nurturing/loving yourself while acting as your own co-parent, writing and telling yourself positive affirmations every day, writing down goals and "breaking" the cycle of abuse that tries to stop you..you will succeed!</p>
<p></p>
<p>and remember - an adult abuser may try to stop your growth if you get help. Oftentimes, they may take some ownership of their abuse with excuses like " it was for your own good to toughen you up" etc..or "i had no choice, I was abused," etc… They may also label you "crazy", "ungrateful" and say that "it didn't happen that way".. But by engaging in this type of dialogue and believing your abuser - it only continues the unhealthy cycle and makes you remain a victim. </p>
<p></p>
<p>When you heal.. that person is forced to heal too.. or they stay out of your life… as its a new day and your setting new standards for how you will be treated. </p>
<p></p>
<p>The other common form of emotional abuse in families - is abuse by favoritism. Another popular theme with clients that come for healings. </p>
<p>Oftentimes, a parent may pick a favorite child over one or more children.. and in some instances, one parent has to side with the parent doing the favoring - as it somehow corrects or fills a void one of the parents is feeling. but actuality parental favoring can do a great disservice to your children - not only to the favored child but to the child or children being alienated. </p>
<p>For example - a child overly favored over another has no boundaries and may have an inflated sense of entitlement and suffer from not being reprimanded. Since they are always told they are right - it creates a very demanding person who takes zero ownership of their behavior or issues in life with others. This person also has little understanding of "give and take" in relationships with spouses, colleagues or friends since they always have their way. On the flip side, the least favored child who is neglected or alienated are at risk for low self-esteem and depression from being subjected to their parents abuse and neglect by favoritism. The least favored may have trouble speaking up and defending themselves from years of being silenced and dismissed for their thoughts, input, feelings and actions. This is learned behavior through therapy that can be reprogrammed and "unlearned" for setting healthy new patterns. </p>
<p></p>
<p>Many adult survivors of abuse are in company with many in society today - they are your contemporaries who survived similar poor parenting skills that were somehow downplayed or overlooked do to the standards accepted at the time. For example during my generation, children raised in the 70s were viewed more as a social statement of the norm.. and kids were viewed as their parent's property. Kids were told how to act and how to feel. Their thoughts, feelings and truths were not to be spoken or acknowledged.. but swept under the rug. Career paths were encouraged by what your parent(s) wanted for you. It was this 50's mentality that parents learned and passed down.</p>
<p></p>
<p>In today's generation with spiritual growth, understanding and self-reflection, parents are taking a new approach to parenting that involves self reflection and examination to determine their own behaviors - so that unhealthy patterns of emotional abuse don't repeat themselves .. and so their own kids don't go through it by showing their kids they are encouraged and supported to be themselves and express themselves openly and authentically without fearing mom and dad's disapproval. It is these breakthrough examples achieved through therapy and healing that help stop unhealthy cycles. </p>
<p></p>
<p>For any adult survivors of emotional abuse - establishing one's own self standard is key. By setting your own standard of self love and truly practicing forgiveness towards yourself, you will tremendously help initiate your own healing. </p>
<p></p>
<p>Knowing you deserve to be loved and respected and by doing your best to be your own cheerleader is the first step to healing.. and truly setting that reference for yourself to attract those people in your life that treat you right. </p>
<p></p>
<p>Regardless of age, race, gender, economic or cultural background - please remember, it is never too late to work on you and heal from emotional abuse. </p>DNA ENERGY HEALING - HOW IT HELPS TO HEAL AND PREVENT CANCER AND OTHER AILMENTStag:www.worldviewzmedia.net,2014-04-09:2098065:BlogPost:917272014-04-09T15:30:00.000ZLeslye Jacobshttp://www.worldviewzmedia.net/profile/LeslyeJacobs
<p>With so many people and loved ones impacted by Cancer - it is more important than ever for people to search deep within to cure and remove disease from the body. </p>
<p></p>
<p><span>ANY Disease can be removed from the body but in our world of Western medicine - the common cure tactics today for diseases such as Cancer is ONLY the "removal" and post radiation and chemotherapy treatments without embracing other alternative healing modalities to address the underlying root…</span></p>
<p>With so many people and loved ones impacted by Cancer - it is more important than ever for people to search deep within to cure and remove disease from the body. </p>
<p></p>
<p><span>ANY Disease can be removed from the body but in our world of Western medicine - the common cure tactics today for diseases such as Cancer is ONLY the "removal" and post radiation and chemotherapy treatments without embracing other alternative healing modalities to address the underlying root cause. </span></p>
<p></p>
<p><span>A healthy diet and exercise lifestyle are certainly important too - but just as important is the body-mind-spirit connection for removing fear based thoughts, beliefs and trauma that cause the disease/cancer cells to form in the first place.</span></p>
<p></p>
<p><span>One can opt for a double mastectomy or to remove a tumor that keeps growing back - but that western medicine approach alone is clearly putting a band-aid on the issue without addressing the underlying root cause. </span></p>
<p></p>
<p><span>Working in conjunction with M.D.s and western medicine is so important but so is doing one's best to embrace and connect to the underlying cause - to work "outside their comfort zone" to identify the source…many times with my clients, the "why" they contracted the disease (for their own learning/journey) is buried deep within their subconscious. They know the fear is there.. but our work together gives them a better understanding of where it is coming from and how it manifested in the NOW - so we can gently and effectively remove/heal the belief work and trauma so the disease doesn't resurface. </span></p>
<p></p>
<p><span>It gives my clients insight on how to better understand how their thoughts/beliefs contributed to the disease and how important their own role is in removing the disease themselves from the body. DNA/Energy work allows my clients to achieve this- something we will be seeing more of in our "mainstream" society in the 21st century. </span></p>
<p></p>
<p><span>By removing unhealthy belief work and removing "core fears" imprinted in a person's DNA coding.. the fear/pain/trauma that caused the disease to manifest in the first place is removed and imprinted with new positive beliefs that no longer create fear, trauma or disease in the body - regardless of one's lineage.. as you are not your mother, brother, father or grandmother - and your DNA and core beliefs carrying these genes can and will be changed. </span></p>
<p></p>
<p><span> This type of healing may resonate with many of you - but be patient with your loved ones who are "old school" or not ready for it yet. This type of healing modality cannot be "coerced " or cajoled - as a person has to believe. They have to truly understand the mind (belief work) connection to their bodies.. and must truly want to remove the disease and change their dna coding by better understanding their own unhealthy thoughts/beliefs traumas in their lineage that caused the disease to form in the first place. They have to truly want the harm to be gone from their system -and what they "think" may be the underlying cause often surprises them when we do this work together.. as again, its deep within their subconscious and is not at times "conscious" for many having a physical or emotional ailment that needs healing. </span></p>
<p></p>
<p><span>Those clients ready for 21st century healing have to believe and want to be healed with all their heart and soul. That is why clients I work with are often those open to new healing modalities. They are educated people who want to take ownership themselves of their own healing beyond the boundaries of what they have been taught conditionally in a society that has mainly embraced Western medicine as the only cure. They are open to obtaining a better level of understanding (whether they have it consciously or unconsciously- to how the disease came to them in the first place (for their own learning and growth this lifetime) and are open to eradicating disease/trauma/fears and harmful belief patterns at the root level. </span></p>
<p></p>
<p><span>Western medicine is NOT always the answer and again.. you can cut off the arm to remove a cancerous tumor but again, if the belief work causing the disease to form is still there.. its not addressing the underlying root of the problem, and that tumor can come back. Removal alone of the disease is just a "band-aid," The underlying root cause is the fears/core beliefs in one's DNA lineage that caused the disease to manifest in the first place. <b>With energy work and trust/belief in CREATOR - anyone one or thing can be healed.. you just have to be open and will it!</b></span></p>
<p></p>
<p><span>Embracing an "east meets west" connection to a combination of healing modalities that are "comfortable" for the person is what is best. .. for example with cancer - Western medicine .. i.e.. radiation, chemo post surgery or extraction of the area for "peace of mind" combined with doing the belief work are ideal practices with where "mainstream society" is at today in their understanding of healing.</span></p>
<p></p>
<p><span>If this resonates with you .. you are ready for the healing coming back to us in the 21st century. If you don't want to believe beyond your "comfort zone" of western medicine - than you are not quite ready for the work we do… and thats okay too.. In time you will be. </span></p>
<p></p>
<p><span>Coasting at a speed and comfort level that is right for you is best.. As one can never interfere with a person's journey to self heal and learn from their disease.. However, prayers to open people up to heal themselves in a way that is best for them is a good way to start… and more and more.. those new to energy healing are finding its benefits (as i see with my clients).. so it is well on its way to becoming a new treatment for many who are opening up to it and who want to proactively take ownership in their own healing by doing the necessary work. </span></p>
<p></p>Past Life Regressions vs DNA Energy Healing: Why I stopped doing past-life regressions and tips for those seeking out regression worktag:www.worldviewzmedia.net,2014-04-08:2098065:BlogPost:914462014-04-08T18:30:00.000ZLeslye Jacobshttp://www.worldviewzmedia.net/profile/LeslyeJacobs
<p><span>Past Life Regression is an area I started working in towards the end of my grad school in I/O Psychology. In my 20’s after finishing school, I studied with my first shaman/PHD in Psychology, I also proctored classes/doing statistical analysis for my cousin Dr Alicia Tisdale’s client practice - including her regression cases and cure rates post visit. Both the individual case studies and cure rates were astounding! Later on, in the mid 90s in LA - I was able to study with Dr. Brian…</span></p>
<p><span>Past Life Regression is an area I started working in towards the end of my grad school in I/O Psychology. In my 20’s after finishing school, I studied with my first shaman/PHD in Psychology, I also proctored classes/doing statistical analysis for my cousin Dr Alicia Tisdale’s client practice - including her regression cases and cure rates post visit. Both the individual case studies and cure rates were astounding! Later on, in the mid 90s in LA - I was able to study with Dr. Brian Weiss, the grandfather of Past Life Regression, along with other shamans/healers embracing both the clinical education/spiritual training in their work. All of these mentors had slightly different techniques and I can honestly say I learned from some of the best people - who truly cultivated and shaped this therapy and technique. </span></p>
<p><span>As I entered the business side of psychology and continued my healing studies, I eventually spread my wings and moonlighted regressing clients in between my day jobs for many years. </span>The results astonished me and the more I studied with gifted teachers and played “guinea pig” on myself - allowing gifted healers to regress me, the more I learned about my own regression technique and how to make it better for my clients. </p>
<p><span>I also researched and validated a particular lifetime for my memoirs (a lifetime of work in progress). This particular lifetime was significant to my present lifetime - and was one where I had suffered from polio. Since it was recent and very easy to recall - it required the scientist in me to work with a handful of special “entrusted” healers from different parts of the world to help with this process - and my “pickiness” was for good reason as I will explain further. </span></p>
<p><span>Shows Like “Reincarnated” Past Lives” are a perfect example of using </span>this very effective modality in the wrong way - as the clients on this show all have a mild curiosity about their past lives but the actor/hypnotist who performs the work does not exhibit the “skills” or technique by example in the art of doing a proper and safe regression. During one segment, he admits candidly that he is still learning, yet it concerns me that his clients all reappear weeks later still stuck in a state of heavy processing of feelings/emotions from that lifetime visited. It is as if they are carrying around the past in a time warp relieving and feeling that past lifetime in the present. Yes perhaps its dramatized for tv! - but it shows clearly by example - what is not working here! </p>
<p><span>The same is true for many hypnotists I have observed first hand during regressions in hands-on classroom settings. Without properly witnessing, guiding and closing/healing the regression - your client can be in danger. </span></p>
<p><span>While it takes courage and trust to allow someone to “hypnotize” you, it is not a healing modality for everyone and you should choose someone highly qualified and capable of keeping you safe who truly brings you healing from the experience. Of course - that will only happen if your capable and open to being hypnotized in the first place! as this is not a healing modality for the skeptic or "control freak" at heart. </span></p>
<p><span>Regression is a modality I no longer offer to my clients simply because I find DNA/Energy work to be so much more effective and “all encompassing” in healing multiple lifetimes. It heals all the areas my clients need healing with - while keeping them “in control” and aware of what is going on at all times in the induced trance like state. Since they are fully present and aware of the work we are co-creating together, they truly feel safe and in control at all times. The best part of DNA healing is that my clients are not “stuck in the past” and are not reliving any heavy trauma but healing multiple lifetimes/lessons all in one setting without having to re-visit the past, re-experience the pain or risk being “stuck” there emotionally. </span></p>
<p><span>To only go to one lifetime (for a regression) when we are living in a time of experiencing and connecting to many lifetimes - is not as effective in the healing process. Therefore, I</span> no longer offer it because I truly want to bring my clients the most effective healing with the least amount of pain. </p>
<p><span>The number 1 reason people came to me for regression work was more out of curiosity than healing - which can be a dangerous door to open - especially for those most susceptible to being hypnotized. </span></p>
<p><span>Though many curiosity seekers still want to “go there” and still seek regression therapy. We must not forget, it is still a form of therapy and not entertainment and should not be treated as such. It is also a healing form that can be dangerous when issued by those who are not skilled to properly do a regression. </span></p>
<p><span>Being trained as a hypnotist does NOT make someone skilled to do a past-life regression. What i’ve seen both in the classroom and on shows like “Reincarnated </span>Past lives’ is that the person doing the regression does not sense, feel or see what the client is experiencing under hypnosis.. Since they are not sensing/feeling the type of danger the person may be in by experiencing /relieving the trauma -that client can be in danger themselves and it can be very traumatic for the client without any way of expressing that - because they are under! This is highly irresponsible, and in extreme cases, the person could experience cardiac arrest from the stress if they are NOT “reliving” the past life from a detached perspective. </p>
<p><span>Yes, this is possible and there have been a few documented cases/studies in this area.. but nothing I’ve seen in a mainstream forum yet, but still something that I want people seeking this treatment to be aware of. Without these skill sets, the hypnotist doing the work can seriously put their clients lives in jeopardy. </span></p>
<p><span>Furthermore, if the person doing your regression is not a qualified Psychologist with the gift of text book/clinically educated training combined with “hands on” experience and a level of spiritual understanding/capabilities, than there are big risks involved with this work. </span></p>
<p><span>On top of proper educational training, the healer must be "spiritually" aware to know what's going on.. This way they can help their client take a “detached” perspective when they stumble upon tricky terrain and must be properly able to “close the wound” so to speak.. otherwise, a particular client can be walking around for days, weeks, months or even years with the past being present. They can even risk bringing on the symptoms of a regression back to this lifetime!</span></p>
<p><span>That is why the wounds and lessons learned must be healed and closed in the right way - and only someone on this level of understanding can do so properly. </span></p>
<p><span>From my extensive research validating my past life many years ago dying from polio - a lifetime I risked visiting many times for more granular dates, times, locations, names, etc.. I knew when it was my limit and when not to go back there, as I would have been risking bringing on the disease again in this lifetime - something there was no way I wanted to do! As a trained/educated scientist, I sometimes pushed the boundaries - but safely in knowing how to do it and entrusting only those qualified/capable of keeping me safe while doing the research. There are a handful of colleagues I trusted with this process who met my tough criteria and it was these elite hand picked healers who I went to for my research. </span></p>
<p><span>If after reading this article you still want to experience a regression, I suggest you do your research and really know the person regressing you. Make sure they are qualified both educationally and spiritually and know how to properly extract and heal the lessons learned from the lifetime you visit. Reading text book knowledge online does not make someone qualified! </span></p>
<p><span>Natural born healers with intuition, hands-on educational experience and spiritual gifts - are best for this type of work. Always ask for testimonials and a tape if they have it to show you their approach so you can ask yourself: “Is this healer truly intuitive and aware/”in tune” to what the client is experiencing?”, “Is this person actually asking the right questions via intuition to get to the heart of the matter/lesson in the particular lifetime? Is this person properly handling the regression, keeping the person safe and detached from pain? Are they properly closing the wounds from this lifetime - helping the client heal, gain insight in obtaining a proper life review?" </span></p>
<p><span>All of these things are important for both healing and closure from your regression to keep you safe and healed. Interview, check credentials and choose wisely. </span></p>
